So my dad comes round to work on the car, get everything ready... and the battery is dead. Oh well, at least we cleaned and polished the beast. I guess it will have to wait until next Monday before we try and start it :/

Does anybody know what the bore and stoke is in mm for a 998? Im trying to do an assignment and part of it I need to find the cc capacity of an engine. Obviously I know the cc, but part of the question is do the calculation.

Yeah, came the other day. Ended up ripping the threads off the bolt instead. Having nothing but bad luck haha

In need of a new engine block. Kind of broke the threads when torquing the head down. Would like to just put a bike engine in instead, but the price is kind of a downer.

Can I do that with a tap and dye set or do I need to buy a special tool?

You need to get the thread size and then search for the right Helicoil set. It consists of an over sized drill bit, over sized tap, thread inserts and insertion tool. You have to be careful so if you don't have the confidence then get a machine shop to do it. Cheaper than buying a new block
