The work included a full major service and tune up, replacing all fluids, filters, belts, spark plugs, cam housing gaskets, and upper and lower valve cover gaskets. The turbos were removed and rebuilt by Turbo Technologies and refitted with a turbo line upgrade kit having the proper (and overlooked at the factory?) check valves. Included with the updated gaskets and hoses were a complete new clutch assembly and flywheel, clutch master cylinder, clutch slave cylinder, and new Continental tires. All removed clutch parts and inner turbo parts are available for inspection at Vette Culture as are documented pictures of the work—all will be included in the sale as proof sources/at buyer’s choice. We know the full history of this vehicle going back to 1999.
