Their condition is not unusually poor\u2014the components have simply been in service for a long time.<\/p>\n<p>However, since this project involves a comprehensive overhaul, the pistons and cylinders will be replaced.<\/p>\n<p>The piston rings are also already showing play in their grooves. Among other things, this wear can contribute to increased oil consumption.<\/p>\n<p>The new components therefore form the foundation not only for reliability, but also for future performance enhancements.<\/p>\n<h3>THE CYLINDER HEADS: THIS IS WHERE MOST OF THE WORK IS DONE<\/h3>\n<p>The work on the cylinder heads is particularly extensive.<\/p>\n<p>The sealing surfaces will be reworked to ensure a clean and flat joint once again.<\/p>\n<p>The valve seat rings are also given a new contour. This contour is slightly modified from the original production specification, thereby supporting the planned performance increase.<\/p>\n<p>The valve guides will also be replaced and restored to their original dimensions.<\/p>\n<p>Air-cooled Porsche 911 engines, in particular, show a significant amount of wear in the cylinder heads after high mileage.<\/p>\n<h3>LARGER INTAKE VALVES AND SPORT VALVE SPRINGS<\/h3>\n<p>The valve train is also undergoing continuous development.<\/p>\n<p>New exhaust valves and larger intake valves are used. The intake valves also have thinner stems, whose dimensions are based on those of the Porsche 993.<\/p>\n<p>Since the engines of the Porsche 964 and Porsche 993 are very similar in design, this solution can be effectively applied to both.<\/p>\n<p>The assembly is complemented by <strong>sports valve springs<\/strong> and the corresponding upper and lower spring seats.<\/p>\n<p>This both technically upgrades the valve train and prepares it for future performance enhancements.<\/p>\n<h3>TUNING CAMSHAFTS FOR THE NEW ENGINE CHARACTERISTICS<\/h3>\n<p>New <strong>tuning camshafts<\/strong> are installed in the camshaft housings.<\/p>\n<p>They determine when and for how long the valves open, thereby playing a key role in the engine\u2019s characteristics and power delivery.<\/p>\n<p>The rocker arms aren\u2019t simply reinstalled either.<\/p>\n<p>Their functional surfaces are ground and polished, worn bushings are replaced, and they are then brought back to the specified dimensions.<\/p>\n<p>This restores the engine to like-new technical condition.<\/p>\n<h3>HOW THE NEW ENGINE IS BUILT STEP BY STEP<\/h3>\n<p>Once the individual parts have been refurbished and prepared, the reassembly begins.<\/p>\n<p>First, the piston and cylinder are assembled.<\/p>\n<p>This is followed by:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cylinder Heads<\/li>\n<li>Valve train<\/li>\n<li>Camshaft housing<\/li>\n<li>Intake system<\/li>\n<li>Engine peripherals<\/li>\n<li>Exhaust system<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Step by step, the disassembled engine is thus reassembled into a complete unit.<\/p>\n<h3>THE ENGINE PERIPHERALS ARE ALSO BEING OVERHAULED<\/h3>\n<p>The engine overhaul doesn&#8217;t stop at the engine block itself.<\/p>\n<p>Numerous attached components are also visually and technically refurbished.<\/p>\n<p>For example, steel parts are freshly galvanized. The entire engine bodywork is repowder-coated.<\/p>\n<p>This results not only in a technically overhauled engine on the inside\u2014the visible components are also refurbished to match the overall condition of the vehicle.<\/p>\n<h3>THE DUAL IGNITION DISTRIBUTOR IS OVERHAULED<\/h3>\n<p>A distinctive feature of the Porsche 964 and Porsche 993 engines is the dual ignition distributor.<\/p>\n<p>Inside is a small timing belt that can wear out over time.<\/p>\n<p>This will be replaced during the engine overhaul.<\/p>\n<p>The bearings on the distributor shafts will also be replaced, ensuring that the entire unit functions properly again.<\/p>\n<h3>A NEW OIL PUMP FOR THE RECONDITIONED ENGINE<\/h3>\n<p>The existing oil pump will also be replaced.<\/p>\n<p>A reliable oil supply plays a crucial role, especially in air-cooled engines.<\/p>\n<p>Engine oil not only lubricates numerous moving parts, but also plays a key role in the engine&#8217;s temperature management.<\/p>\n<p>That is why the oil pump is also one of the components being addressed in this extensive rebuild.<\/p>\n<h3>TYPICAL OIL LEAKS IN THE PORSCHE 964<\/h3>\n<p>Another area of focus is the chain cases.<\/p>\n<p>The corresponding sealing surfaces are re-machined and planed to minimize the risk of oil leaks later on.<\/p>\n<p>Porsche 964 and Porsche 993 models, in particular, can be prone to leaks around the chain cases and covers as they age.<\/p>\n<p>Instead of completely replacing technically serviceable components, they are selectively remanufactured.<\/p>\n<p>This allows existing components to be reused effectively while ensuring a proper seal.<\/p>\n<h3>WHEN DOES A PORSCHE 964 NEED AN ENGINE OVERHAUL?<\/h3>\n<p>There is no set mileage threshold at which every Porsche 964 engine must be overhauled.<\/p>\n<p>Although the approximately <strong>200,000 kilometers<\/strong> on the project engine are a typical mileage at which significant wear can certainly occur, the actual condition of the engine is always the deciding factor.<\/p>\n<p>Typical signs that action is increasingly needed may include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Significant oil leak<\/li>\n<li>Large oil stains under the vehicle<\/li>\n<li>Increased oil consumption<\/li>\n<li>Rattling or other mechanical noises<\/li>\n<li>Declining engine performance<\/li>\n<li>Increased wear on individual components<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The engine itself often indicates when a more thorough inspection is necessary.<\/p>\n<h3>WHY A LEAK CAN QUICKLY LEAD TO AN ENGINE OVERHAUL<\/h3>\n<p>Oil leaks, in particular, can lead to extensive work on an air-cooled Porsche engine.<\/p>\n<p>Some sealing points are only accessible once the engine has been largely disassembled.<\/p>\n<p>Once this stage is reached, further disassembly often reveals additional wear on components that, after several decades and high mileage, would need to be overhauled anyway.<\/p>\n<p>In such cases, it may make more technical sense to perform a comprehensive engine overhaul right away, rather than simply repairing a single leak.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>KEY FACTS FROM PART 3<\/h2>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_4,1_4,1_4,1_4&#8243;

The engine was taken to H\u00f6ing Autosport for a comprehensive overhaul.<\/p>\n<p>00:32<\/p>\n<h3>THE 3.6-LITER ENGINE AT H\u00d6ING AUTOSPORT<\/h3>\n<p>Matthias H\u00f6ing shows the Porsche 964\u2019s engine and explains, step by step, which components have already been inspected, overhauled, or replaced.<\/p>\n<p>00:48<\/p>\n<h3>CRANKCASE AND CRANKSHAFT<\/h3>\n<p>The starting point is the crankcase with the crankshaft already installed. All components have been thoroughly cleaned. The crankshaft has been fully measured and remains within Porsche specifications.<\/p>\n<p>01:20<\/p>\n<h3>CONNECTING RODS AND PISTON PIN BUSHINGS<\/h3>\n<p>The connecting rods are thoroughly overhauled. The large connecting rod eyes are brought back to exact specifications. Worn piston pin bushings are completely replaced.<\/p>\n<p>01:45<\/p>\n<h3>NEW TIMING CHAINS AND MAIN BEARINGS<\/h3>\n<p>The engine will be fitted with new timing chains, new main bearings, and new gaskets. This will restore the central crankshaft assembly to a technically reliable condition.<\/p>\n<p>01:55<\/p>\n<h3>PISTONS AND CYLINDERS AFTER ABOUT 200,000 KILOMETERS<\/h3>\n<p>After about 200,000 kilometers, the old pistons and cylinders show signs of normal wear and tear. As part of the comprehensive overhaul, they will be replaced with new components.<\/p>\n<p>02:10<\/p>\n<h3>WHY THE PISTON RINGS NEED TO BE REPLACED AS WELL<\/h3>\n<p>The piston rings already have some play in their grooves. This wear can lead to increased oil consumption, among other things. That is why new pistons and cylinders are being installed.<\/p>\n<p>02:40<\/p>\n<h3>THE CYLINDER HEADS WILL BE COMPLETELY OVERHAULED<\/h3>\n<p>The sealing surfaces of the cylinder heads are remachined. The valve seat rings are also given a new contour, which is slightly modified from the stock configuration and helps improve engine performance.<\/p>\n<p>03:05<\/p>\n<h3>NEW VALVE GUIDES AND VALVES<\/h3>\n<p>The valve guides will be replaced and restored to their original dimensions. In addition, new intake and exhaust valves will be installed, along with sport valve springs and matching spring seats.<\/p>\n<p>03:30<\/p>\n<h3>LARGER INTAKE VALVES BASED ON THE PORSCHE 993 DESIGN<\/h3>\n<p>The intake valves are larger than those in the stock configuration. The thinner valve stems are modeled after those in the Porsche 993. Given the design similarities between the two engines, this is an appropriate technical optimization.<\/p>\n<p>03:50<\/p>\n<h3>NEW TUNING CAMSHAFTS<\/h3>\n<p>New tuning camshafts are installed in the camshaft housings. The rocker arms are also overhauled and restored to like-new condition with new rocker arm shafts.<\/p>\n<p>04:25<\/p>\n<h3>HOW TO REASSEMBLE THE ENGINE<\/h3>\n<p>Next, the pistons and cylinders are installed. This is followed by the cylinder heads, valve train, and camshaft housing. After that, the intake system, exhaust system, and other engine components are added.<\/p>\n<p>04:55<\/p>\n<h3>ATTACHMENT PARTS ARE NOW GALVANIZED AND POWDER-COATED<\/h3>\n<p>Many engine components are also refurbished cosmetically. Steel parts are re-galvanized, and the engine panels receive a fresh powder coat.<\/p>\n<p>05:15<\/p>\n<h3>THE DUAL-IGNITION DISTRIBUTOR IS BEING OVERHAULED<\/h3>\n<p>In the case of the dual ignition distributor, the internal timing belt is replaced. In addition, the distributor shaft bearings are replaced, so that this unit is also technically overhauled.<\/p>\n<p>05:35<\/p>\n<h3>A NEW OIL PUMP FOR THE PORSCHE 964<\/h3>\n<p>As part of the overhaul, the old oil pump will also be replaced. A reliable oil supply is crucial for lubrication and temperature management, especially in an air-cooled engine.<\/p>\n<p>05:50<\/p>\n<h3>CHAIN CASES AND COMMON OIL LEAKS<\/h3>\n<p>The sealing surfaces of the chain cases will be reworked and resurfaced. Porsche 964 and Porsche 993 models may be prone to oil leaks in this area as they age.<\/p>\n<p>06:35<\/p>\n<h3>WEAR ON THE EXHAUST VALVES<\/h3>\n<p>The valve stems show significant wear due to high mileage. Therefore, the affected valves will be replaced as part of the engine overhaul.<\/p>\n<p>06:55<\/p>\n<h3>NEW PISTON PINS<\/h3>\n<p>The piston pins are also replaced. They connect the pistons to the connecting rods and are therefore among the key moving components of the crankshaft assembly.<\/p>\n<p>07:05<\/p>\n<h3>WHEN DOES A PORSCHE 964 NEED AN ENGINE OVERHAUL?<\/h3>\n<p>The engine shown has been driven about 200,000 kilometers. However, there is no set mileage threshold for an overhaul. The actual technical condition is always the deciding factor.<\/p>\n<p>07:20<\/p>\n<h3>OIL LEAKS AS A COMMON WARNING SIGN<\/h3>\n<p>A significant oil leak is one of the most common reasons for major repairs. If seals in hard-to-reach areas need to be repaired, it is often necessary to disassemble a large portion of the engine.<\/p>\n<p>07:50<\/p>\n<h3>TAKE NOISES AND RATTLE SERIOUSLY<\/h3>\n<p>Increasing mechanical noises can also indicate wear and tear. If such warning signs are ignored for an extended period, they can lead to more serious damage.<\/p>\n<p>8:15<\/p>\n<h3>THE MOST SIGNIFICANT WEAR OCCURS IN THE CYLINDER HEADS<\/h3>\n<p>On this engine, the cylinder heads required the most work. Especially in air-cooled Porsche 911 engines, these areas are among the components that can experience particularly heavy wear after high mileage.<\/p>\n<p>08:40<\/p>\n<h3>THE ENGINE OVERHAUL CONTINUES<\/h3>\n<p>After reconditioning the individual components, the step-by-step reassembly of the engine is now beginning. At the same time, work on the body and paintwork of the Porsche 964 project is also progressing.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_toggle][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; width_tablet=&#8221;90%&#8221; width_phone=&#8221;90%&#8221; width_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; max_width=&#8221;80%&#8221; max_width_tablet=&#8221;90%&#8221; max_width_phone=&#8221;90%&#8221; max_width_last_edited=&#8221;on|tablet&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||0px||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||0px||false|false&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.24.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text module_id=&#8221;Multimedia&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.9&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font=&#8221;Open Sans|300|||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;20px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;1.4em&#8221; header_font=&#8221;Open Sans|600||on|||||&#8221; header_text_color=&#8221;#8b634b&#8221; header_line_height=&#8221;1.3em&#8221; header_2_font=&#8221;Open Sans|||on|||||&#8221; header_2_text_color=&#8221;gcid-6290f273-c0d5-4f5d-8d4a-864041d6bcb8&#8243; header_2_font_size=&#8221;35px&#8221; header_2_line_height=&#8221;1.2em&#8221; header_3_text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; header_3_text_color=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; header_3_font_size=&#8221;30px&#8221; header_3_line_height=&#8221;1.3em&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||0px||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||0px||false|false&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; text_font_size_tablet=&#8221;18px&#8221; text_font_size_phone=&#8221;18px&#8221; text_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; header_font_size_tablet=&#8221;25px&#8221; header_font_size_phone=&#8221;20px&#8221; header_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; header_2_font_size_tablet=&#8221;20px&#8221; header_2_font_size_phone=&#8221;19px&#8221; header_2_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; header_2_line_height_phone=&#8221;1.2em&#8221; header_2_line_height_last_edited=&#8221;off|phone&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{%22gcid-1cf94682-03db-406c-931c-1fb2ffb5c4b4%22:%91%22header_text_color%22%93,%22gcid-6290f273-c0d5-4f5d-8d4a-864041d6bcb8%22:%91%22header_2_text_color%22%93}&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h3>THE PROJECT CONTINUES<\/h3>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_3,1_3,1_3&#8243; make_equal=&#8221;on&#8221; module_class=&#8221;video-card-row&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.9&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; width_tablet=&#8221;90%&#8221; width_phone=&#8221;90%&#8221; width_last_edited=&#8221;on|tablet&#8221; max_width=&#8221;80%&#8221; max_width_tablet=&#8221;90%&#8221; max_width_phone=&#8221;90%&#8221; max_width_last_edited=&#8221;on|tablet&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; custom_css_main_element_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; custom_css_main_element_tablet=&#8221;display: flex;||gap: 20px;||align-items: stretch;&#8221; custom_css_main_element_phone=&#8221;display: block;&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; border_radii=&#8221;on|2px|2px|2px|2px&#8221; border_width_all=&#8221;1px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/davidsportscars.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/PORSCHE-964-RESTAURIERUNG-VOM-BESTAND-ZUM-NEUAUFBAU-DAVID-ATELIER-FINEST-SPORTS-CARS-Teil-4.webp&#8221; alt=&#8221;Porsche 964 Market Analysis with Benjamin David and Thomas Ottenstroer&#8221; title_text=&#8221;PORSCHE 964 RESTORATION\u2014FROM EXISTING PARTS TO A COMPLETE REBUILD BY DAVID ATELIER FINEST SPORTS CARS, Part 4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.9&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text content_tablet=&#8221;<\/p>\n<h1 style=%22text-align: center;%22><span class=%22s1%22>Welcome to DAVID Finest Sports Cars<\/span><\/h1>\n<h2 style=%22text-align: center;%22>Your go-to source for sports cars in Hamburg and the surrounding area<\/h2>\n<p style=%22text-align: center;%22>With over 25 years of experience in sports car brokerage, we\u2014as the largest independent sports car dealer in Northern Germany\u2014offer you our expertise in rare and exclusive vehicles.<\/p>\n<p style=%22text-align: center;%22>Our in-house master workshop covers all aspects of vehicle maintenance.
