Oh no Chris! I can't believe the bad luck you are having with your 951's. And I never got to see your black beast in action.
Did the car have the Lindsey oil baffle installed? This is supposed to prevent oil starvation under hard left handed turns. It also contains a ring which gets welded around the oil pickup. I have one in mine and am ok still. (Hurry - find a piece of wood to knock on). I think I have only heard of one failure occurring with that baffle. Just curious, did the engine fail in a left hander? There's only a couple at Summit.
Just take your time putting it all together. It's not hard as you know, just time consuming. I might be able to offer assistance, but things are busy for me right now. Just ask, and I can see if I have the time.
