Transmission

These use fractured rods but I don't think this is correct.. 

Heat damage to 2nd rod with shot bearings

 Picked up this 2007 Cayman S with an unknown engine problem. Decided to pull the motor and either put an LS3 or Audi V8/V10 in it.

Starting the engine removal.

Jacked WAY up to get the motor out!
