I got pretty good at adjusting them on my /4.
Is it alot different for the /6? Something I can do with the right tools or am I better off taking it to a Porsche guy? |

-6 can be a little crowded if you have heat exchangers.
common practice is to pull them off.. headers help though although there are usually problems getting the valve cover to clear the suspension bolt. (some times overcome by grinding the cover ribs, or by installing studs and nuts instead of bolts, or finally by pulling the engine to do the job.) |
