Porsche 993 Engine Back In & First Start After Cam Cover Gasket Repair

Описание: Hi, Paul again here from EMD Motorsport Australia 🇦🇺

In this video, we complete the Porsche 993 engine reinstall and carry out the first proper startup after replacing the cam cover gaskets. This follows on from the previous videos where the engine was removed and repaired.

With everything back together, we start the car, confirm oil pressure, and carry out final inspections before fully reassembling the rear of the vehicle.
