Why choose Nickies over re-ringing a stock engine or replacing with an original replacement case?
Upon inspection of many high mileage or over-heated engines, the stock engine bores tend to be out of specification, with .002-.006″ of ovality, leading to excessive piston clearances, increased ring land and ring wear, and high oil consumption. In addition, a replacement ring set from Porsche for some engines can cost almost as much as a new set of JE Pistons which already include new rings, pins, and clips. Likewise, replacement case halves can cost more than what we charge for upgrading your existing block and our new JE Pistons. In addition, we can provide sizable displacement increases over what a stock engine can offer. As of January 2010, current pricing from Porsche for a crankcase varies from $5000-6000 list for all model years of the M96 engine!
