Thinking of getting a 3.2 or a 993 3.6. If using the factory 914-6 engine mount will I run into any clearance issues around the crank pulley area?
I know of a few other issues that I may encounter. For you 3.2 and 3.6 guys out there any words of wisdom before I jump into this? |

I agree with Mark that the second groove can be machined off the original pulley.
Also,there should be a known correct distance from the engine shelf down to crank centerline. In my experience mechanics either don't bother to engage the seals to the engine tin or it tends to get loose on its own. It's an important barrier. |
