| Air Block-Off Plates |
The 911 engine is an air-cooled engine. As such, it receives much of its cooling via the flow of air from the large upright fan mounted on the engine. Improving the flow of the air helps to keep the engine running cooler, which translates into increased longevity. Since the 911 uses its fan to supply air for the passenger compartment heating system, some of this air is diverted away from cooling the engine. With air cooled cars, the passenger compartment heat comes from air blown through sheet metal passages that surround the exhaust headers.
If your heater in your 911 is not working or is disabled, then you might want to install what is commonly known as an air block-off plate on the side of the engine fan. Towards the left side of the engine, there is an air outlet that drives the heating system for the car. On the early cars, this flow of air was the only mechanism to push air into the passenger compartment. This arrangement didn’t provide adequate warm air flow and in later years, Porsche installed an additional blower motor in the engine compartment. If your heater system is not working or disabled (as it usually is on a track car), then a good upgrade is to replace your heater air-flow plate with a block-off plate. This block-off plate does exactly what its name implies. It blocks the flow of air, and thus diverts it back over the cylinders, where it can cool the car. |

| Porsche Engine Rebuild Stand |
| Planning on rebuilding your engine? You shouldn't even think of it without the proper engine stand. There are cheap, generic engine stands available that will fit your engine with a bit of modifications, but in order to have a firm support of the entire weight of the motor, you should use one specifically designed for the case itself. This fixture is made of heavy-duty steel, and has five arms that can support the full weight of even a complete 930 motor with fuel injection and exhaust! This engine holding fixture can be used with the yokes on most regular engine stands, or you can use the Heavy Duty Clamp which will allow you to bolt the stand to a sturdy (very, very sturdy) table top. The diameter of the shaft is 60mm. This engine holding fixture will fit any model 911, 912, 356, 930, 914 and any air-cooled VW engine. |
