Can't wait to see what's installed for the Porsche. PLEASE do not put a LS or any other engine in that(I'm convinced if you do Ferdinand Porsche might start haunting the QG). Build it with "racing" or performance internals and parts and turn it into a Porsche GT3 RS killer. Like someone you know that owns a purple one now😉😆. Keep up the good content buddy. Really love your content. From Cape Town, South Africa
I'm glad I'm not the only one who has a full blown conversation with myself when I'm puzzling a problem out. Also, the oil drip from the engine at the end when Jared was talking after seeing the snapped timing chain was kind of appropriate.
I click at once I see you have uploaded! From Denmark and a mechanic. We unfortunately have no way near the opertunaties you have or options 🙄 so loving to watch you go at it!❤
Watching you pull that beast of a motor, I [somewhat fondly] recall the utter simplicity of the 1300cc motors that preceded it. Disconnect 3 bits of shroud, the gas, throttle cable and electrical leads for the choke and coil, disconnect the heat ducts, jack up the rear end, disconnect the 4 bolts holding the motor to the transaxle and drop it. Of course, it also made 36 HP...
Have faith. It’s still a Porsche. When you repair the engine you can upgrade,replace what will make the motor a whole lot more reliable! Can’t wait to see more!
THANK YOU JARRED!!!!!!!! 🙂🙂🙂 VERY HAPPY TO HEAR THAT 308 RUN WITH YOUR CUSTOM DESIGNED BY YOU! fuel injection system!!! awesome work sir!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 many many thumbs up!!
I remember when I could remove the engine from my 1966 911 in about 15 minutes with nothing more than jackstands, a floor jack, a socket set and a couple of end wrenches. Two engine mount bolts, two transmission mount bolts, one bolt for the shift linkage, one fuel line, about three wires, the big hose from the oil tank, then drop the jack and roll the engine out from under the car. That two liter flat six put out a mighty 130 horsepower, and you got to choose between holes in pistons if you ran hot enough spark plugs to keep from oil fouling, or frequently fouled plugs. I tried both methods.
Jarod your commentary is undoubtedly in my opinion the most well spoken. Your video editing is spot on. I am really enjoying this video. I would’ve thrown wrenches. pulling that motor. I hope the motor is savable. However, if it was not seen many LS swapped. How difficult would it be to be original with a coyote?
@@TheQuestionableGarage Flat six Subaru EJ 30; boxer engine, water cooled, easy parts, 300 + hp easy with an NA motor. It is a 600 cc's smaller but a little "secret sauce" could liven it up. I think some factory versions were turbo charged too boot.
I know the why now, and it’s still pretty insane! Next episode we tear the engine down completely and found something surprising, and not just the TH-cam title surprising, the mechanic real life surprising
I've done a lot of questionable stuff, I've worked on a LOT of different vehicle engines, but never a Porsche. Thanks for the tutorial, looking forward to the next episode!
Absolutely commendable to tackle these jobs!! I learn every time on how to approach and just appreciate the engineering into motors!! Thoroughly enjoy the content. Keep it coming. ML&R.
Based on the engine teardowns Eric on the I Do Cars channel does, there's two levels of German. There's the positive kind where it's thoughtfully designed and relatively easy to figure out, like the venerable air-cooled VWs and Porsches. And for everything else (modern VW/Audi, BMW and Mercedes) the engineers are seemingly locked into a contest to make everything as clever as possible with no regards to any kind of practicality.
Even that can be forgiven in my opinion if they at least build a durable engine by using quality components. Modern BMW engines are being built with as much plastic as humanly possible and plastic that goes through constant heat and stress cycles breaks, you don't have to be an engineer to be able to figure that one out. The VW/Audi group isn't far behind BMW and even "good old" Mercedes, a brand that used to boast that they used at least 6 bolts where others used "only" 4 bolts, has succumbed to the "make it as light and fallible as possible while still getting it through the warranty period" hype that's been driven by ever greedier manufacturers.
I feel for ya. I flip cars as a hobby. The bulk of my experience is with GM minus a five year stint at a Porsche/Audi/VW/Jaguar dealership as a Porsche tech. I picked up a 2000 Subaru WRX for 500 bucks that was a "get it out of my yard, I'm tired of looking at it" kind of deal that I knew nothing about. That @#% car has thrown me more curveballs than anything I've ever worked on. I now know more about the EJ205 than I ever thought I would.
From hearing it started I knew the chains were gone. Hopefully you didn't murder the heads. And you'll be able to rebuild this motor. But I would do a full tear down and rebuild.
Honestly I would LS swap it. It's probably heck of a lot cheaper and jared you can used all the factory gauges and everything. I believe you can get everything plug and play. I know Jr garage did his and all factory stuff in the car work.
@@izno73 German autos just arent exactly know for reliability is what im saying.. like this particular engine and intermediate shaft failures well under a hundred thousand miles. Or the cylinder wall scoring.. or BMW making ROD BEARINGS a REGULAR SERVICE ITEM @ 20k miles.. when they work they work great but they dont tend to work for very long and are $$$$$ to repair. Thats my point.. just my opinion tho. But im sure im not alone. But if you got the $$ then more power to you.. enjoy das auto ya!
@@mikeysbago-meat7967strangely where I live German cars are renowned for being reliable, and American cars are the unreliable junk ones. Maybe it’s just mechanics here have more experience maintaining them than US cars.
Good video mate, as long as that gearbox is fine, that alone should cover most of the outlay on this car. That's if you have to part it out, I really don't expect you to do it though. Looking forward to the next episode.
This is gonna be awesome. Hopefully you rebuild the Porsche engine, I would think that would be how to get the most value out of the car. Look forward to seeing how this turns out!
Wow - I've seen a lot of badly stretched chains, and far-far-FAR too many broken timing chain tensioners... But I've never seen a chain broken and bunched up the cam gears like that before... Hopefully the motor is in better shape then the gut wrenching felling I've got in my stomach upon seeing that... Looking forward to seeing the fully tuned Ferrari in due time, I'm sure (Mrs.) Wizard is looking forward to taking it out for a cruise. I'll admit, Holley EFI wasn't the first system that jumped into my mind - just never seen Holley outside the usual American V8's (well, the odd American 6's here and there - but nothing really beyond those applications spring to mind). However, I'm glad it's installed and working. I do hope this will lead to more opportunities to see Holley EFI pop up more often, esp. in less traditional applications. 🙂
I swear the Subaru ez30r flat 6 is just a Porsche engine made reliable and cheap to maintain the look pretty similar . I would love to own an ez30 Subaru powered Porsche 996
EJ25 swap it? Would in theory be an easier swap, and it would be like the build Mighty Car Mods did with Daisy. A old school VW beetle and EJ25 swapped it. It was a MONSTER! Maybe the Porsche could have the same swap done? It would be awesome to see. Never saw a Porsche EJ swapped before.
Glad to finally see/hear the Ferrari run and look forward to the tuning and hopefully a dyno run. Yes, you made the right choice buying the Poorsche as the body and trans are worth what you paid as a "roller". Yes, you should LS swap it with a Vortec SC and come away way happier with the end result and the $$ you can make if you flip it as long as all is done well and sorted. Renegade Hybrids comes to mind. Just my humble opinion. Good luck as a repair/rebuild of that engine, if even possible, will cost you big $$.
Even if he gets another engine, with the Porsche prices currently, he should be able to sell the 996 for at least 25k (of course after some clean and paint correction). There’s at least 8-10k profit there.
Always learning one way or the other. That valvetrain would make great table art if nothing else. Happy to hear the 308 start (if you sat on the ground next to it would it look like you fit from the other side? asking because I loved Magnum's but always suspected I would have to look over the windshield to drive like him) any news on the IS F fix? I hope the Porsche works out for you. Maybe you could be the first to swap in a lexus v8 into it to aggravate all the purists in both camps! At least your garage is half way towards the "justifying a higher education" poster now.
I can hear that Porsche saying, "oh, hell no, you ain't putting no broomstick anywhere near my backside." In Rabbits [VinWiki] voice, "she's a classy one ain't she."
That is cool, I am excited to see what you do. I appreciate the flat 6 and would not be disappointed with a GM small block of your choosing. Or go insane with a big block.
Jared the strangled chicken sounds at the end of the first Porsche start sounds like a bosch starter issue 🤷🏼♂️ I’ve had a bunch make that sound 🤦🏼♂️😂😂
The condition of the engine will probably determine if the Porsche will be a runner or a parts car. The body and interior are in decent shape, and even if the engine is trash, the manual gearbox should be worth something, so lot of parts to pick from. If it wasn't a flip car I might have suggested that it be combined with the Tesla from a previous episode and made into an EV but I don't know if the result will have any resale value or not.
Thanks for starting the Ferrari up. Between David and yourself the thing should end up sounding like a sewing machine. "Staccato", as the Car Wizard would say.
If you want to build another engine in it, think of a K24, possibly with a turbo, that won't be done much yet, I don't know them anyway. An LS has been done so many times before.
That is the thing with chains, when they break it is a complete disaster. The chain and the weakest link, and so on, and so forth. If the heads are not warped, see if you can get a short block from ScrapLife Garage. Maybe they have a full engine? I would not LS swap it, it devaluates the price of the car.
Jared I am not very far from you I would love to wrench on the car with you at no expense of yours. I did a complete repair of a 996 it’s pretty tricky and fun at the same time if your interested I could send you some of my pictures of the before and after work. Put a stage two clutch on mine and clutch system was replaced also I did a bearing replacement with the upgraded bearings.
Just no, don't LS swap, any hillbilly can LS swap a lawnmower if they wanted to. I googled it, it's literally been done. More than once. If anything, throw a 2J in that SOB, or go full Frankenstein and put a rotary in it. Worlds first 6 rotor Porsche, or some such, opens the gate to a future collab with Rob Dahm or some such, far more entertaining that watching the 78 millionth LS swap into something it wasn't meant to go into....
@@MaverickBlue42 Agreed. LS swapping everything is so boring and crude. Total lack of imagination. I just wait for the first LS swapped Chiron or Murcielago. Master class in How to turn a fine machine into a tractor.

I have to wonder if a Subaru EZ30 (phase 2, aka EZ30R) would fit and run on the stock electronics. Mechanically they have a lot in common, including parts. The VVL system is literally borrowed from this porsche engine and the VVT should be similar enough. My only uncertainty would be rotation direction and the timing trigger patterns.

Thank you for starting it up. I literally searched for Part Deuce and got disappointed. Thanks!
Dyno day is tomorrow! It’s video is coming up soon! Had to get it coordinated with the dyno shop!
This is the first time I’ve ever seen a double roller timing chain broken. Ive seen them stretched from milage, but not straight up snapped.
