Thank you, learned a lot! Crazy how simple the solution of the 993 camhousing is with bolting the rocker shafts to the housing. The 993 really was a good step forward in terms of engineering.
Top content! Greetings from Ukraine. I was very surprised to find out, that Porsche in 90s, still didn't use pressurised oiling of rocker ams. Taking to account, it was pretty high rev and high output engine, that appears to be a strange desicion. Anyway, keep up the good work!
I have a 993 C2 6speed narrow body car. I notice in your video that the camshaft you are using doesn't have woodruff key or the cam flange. My engine is like that too. Some say that some of the 1996 993 cars didn't have the cam flange sprocket setup. I don't remember any woodruff keys or cam flange coming off of my camshaft. I have looked at my disassembly video. Have you ran into this before on other engines? I don't want to buy something that doesn't go on the car.
@@islandworks No the camshaft and the sprocket that goes on the camshaft. On some 993s there is a cam flange and then the sprocket. My car doesn't have one and I was wondering if your car uses one.
I’m sorry but I’m not sure what you’re referring to. There is a loose sprocket sitting on a loose key just under the chain sprocket if that’s what you’re referring to.
@@islandworks Thanks. The 993 cam setup typically doesn't have the key way and the extra sprocket. It is attached to the camshaft by 3 screws on the 993. On the 964 I think it has a metal key and a sprocket that keeps it in place. The two are decidedly different is what i found out. Some say the woodruff key is better to have as the 993 without it is just not strong enough.
Thanks! I just placed the rockers there for fitment. I will say though that setting timing without having the rockers installed is very difficult as the cam moves too much. I always have all of them in there.
In my build on my 993 I found the right bank camshaft is sticking in the housing. I switched out the came and put it in the left housing to see if it was the cam. It turned quite freely. I tried the other cam in the right bank housing to check if it sticks and it did. The part number on the cam housing I have is 9931051117R, it's the original cambox. I ordered a new right box from the dealer and they said the cam box is a "racing housing" I have no idea what that means. What is the number on your 993 cambox you are using in this vid? I bet it's the same.
It sounds like your cam housing is not straight. Did you try to untighten the heads and then retighten in a different order? The tightening order I’m using in my video is done that way to avoid the cam shaft bind.
@@islandworks Yes I did. Today I sealed down the cam towers and installed the oil tubes. First try the cam (right side) stuck. I un-torqued the head bolts and the cam tower bolts and pulled out my Bently manual and torqued in the criss cross pattern recommended. Cam began to move freely. So thanks for the tips. I am waiting on some parts before I get the chain boxes done. I will have a pro do the timing as I am not familiar with that part. Here is vid link of my work today. ua-cam.com/video/bNqUarKt7co/v-deo.html
Relaxing to watch. So, I am not the only one to forget the sequence of assembling stuff.

Great stuff again! Pleasure to watch.
I pushed all the buttons to make you happy. 😊
Thanks 👍👍😊
Thanks again for the great content. I can’t wait to hear that engine purring 🙌🏻

Really good description of why the top end of the 993 Engine is better than the 964. Awesome video as always. Keep up the good work :)
Great vid we'll done
Good Job Jonas! Keep it up! Greetings from Lithuania! ❤️
Love watching such great engineering get pieced together.
Another great episode, looking forward to the next one!!
Pressed like before i watch 👍
Optimism! I love it!
Nice to see that you are back working on the car!
Always working on it, but with varying pace 👍🏻
@@islandworks Good to hear! I don't know when my project will be able to start. Now the family has grown, so will probably be delayed 😂
I feel you, we became 4 just two months ago!
Wonderful to see a new video. 👍👍
More coming soon 😎
great to see especially this tuning. love it 🐴
Vapor blasting can be done with many different types of media but baking soda is the best for internal parts
doing a good job man. love the videos. keep up the great work and videos!
Mycket bra info! Thanks for building my dream car :)
Älskar dina videor! Har du 964 kamhus att sälja?
Ja det finns nog ett set här
@@islandworks aj fan, redan fixat, tack ändå

You mean to driver for the power steering? It’s because I cut it off…

Great videos very informative but I think you should not installed the rocker arms before setting timing

Dilivar studs?
Yes!

@@islandworks Changed the tightening order and sequence and so far so good. Cam turns must freely. Thanks!
