OK, I have another coworker with a '83 911 with the 3.0 motor that needs some tweaking. Needless to say, he's enjoyed driving the crap out of this car. The engine basically needs an overhaul, but he wants to upgrade from the 3.0 jugs to the 3.2. Any recommendations for a good mechanic?

Thanks,

Thanks,
I know that Phil Strayer had an engine done recently for his 911. I can't find his email, but I am sure his wife coco would help you.
