The engine is stripped to bare components and put into a high pressure cylindrical wash at high temperature with cleansing chemicals; 
this removes all carbon deposits and debris from previous failures. From this stage the cylinder bores are checked for wear, ovality etc.
Some Porsche 911 997 3.6 and 3.8 may need new liners this would be at an extra cost.
The Pistons are checked and rings are then changed,

Connecting rods are inspected; the crankshaft is then checked and polished.
After this the main, big end and thrust bearings are replaced.

A new genuine the oil pump is fitted and scavenger pumps checked.
Cylinder heads are stripped down and checked for wear, cracks and for trueness then pressure tested and the face machined. 
Valve guides are then checked for wear and replaced as necessary, after this valve seats are machined. New stem seals are fitted.
Refaced valves are re cut and the head then leak tested. The camshafts are then checked for wear. Then engine is then re built with all new genuine seals and gaskets.

These Porsche 911 997 3.6 and 3.8 engines suffer from the cylinder bores going oval which results in the pistons scoring the nikasil plated liners ,causing a ticking noise similar to the sound of a noisy hydraulic.

 

 We can offer the below service when rebuilding the engine to prevent future occurrence:-

To machine and fit steel liners with a top hat design which ensures extra durability, to include new pistons during the full engine rebuild would prevent any future issues, its a well known fact these engines suffer with the cylinders going oval causing scoring to the bores. This is eliminated once these liners and pistons are fitted.
