MFX Posted 12September, 2016 Report Share Posted 12September, 2016 Hey guys,I am ready to start on my engine tear down, and I was wondering if someone has a 911 yoke I could borrow? Otherwise I will either have to buy one or build one (probably the latter).Thanks,Jeff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P-Kay Posted 12September, 2016 Report Share Posted 12September, 2016 Can't help myself......Isn't it 'Home built by Jeff'....not 'Borrowed by Jeff' Sorry mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonN Posted 13September, 2016 Report Share Posted 13September, 2016 Can't help myself......Isn't it 'Home built by Jeff'....not 'Borrowed by Jeff' Sorry mate Car might be home built, but where does he claim to have built the tools. Next you will be wanting him to mine the ore to make the iron to convert to steel and then forge his own parts.... Jeff, that might save you some money!

MFX Posted 13September, 2016 Author Report Share Posted 13September, 2016 Can't help myself......Isn't it 'Home built by Jeff'....not 'Borrowed by Jeff' Sorry mate hahaha. Nice Car might be home built, but where does he claim to have built the tools. Next you will be wanting him to mine the ore to make the iron to convert to steel and then forge his own parts.... Jeff, that might save you some money!Actually I did build the tube bender and other bits and pieces. It may well be better to build the yoke than order one and wait but it would be easier to borrow one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P-Kay Posted 13September, 2016 Report Share Posted 13September, 2016 I've always wondered about the flat 6 yoke versus the standard engine stand yoke. Obviously they are different (duh)Can you get away with just extending the arms or does the base plate need different slots?Just a curious sucker as I have NFI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't understand why you needed a special one, but now I have been reading Wayne Dempsey's book it all makes sense. The 911 yoke attaches to only one side of the case as it obviously is in two bits, where as most regular engines obviously have a solid block to mount onto.

P-Kay Posted 13September, 2016 Report Share Posted 13September, 2016 Ahhhh......two halves.....once it's spelt out, the penny drops!Cheers for that Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MFX Posted 13September, 2016 Author Report Share Posted 13September, 2016 On another note, I just realised that I need the special cam removal tools as well, if anyone can help me out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harvs11 Posted 13September, 2016 Report Share Posted 13September, 2016 hahaha. Nice Actually I did build the tube bender and other bits and pieces. It may well be better to build the yoke than order one and wait but it would be easier to borrow one The yoke has rebates machined in to clear parts of the block. Its worth getting one if you can. You'll need spacers for the bolts too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MFX Posted 13September, 2016 Author Report Share Posted 13September, 2016 Looks like Bumble has one I can borrow and he lives close by. Apparently he also has the cam tools which he lent to another PFA member which he just needs to get back. Fingers crossed I can start the engine teardown soon.
