It needs to make laps across the USA and see 100k miles in less than 6 months.
Once my M96 assembly manual is published it will be a lot easier for DIYrs to build their own engines. Till then I still hold my semi-annual engine rebuild schools here at Flat 6 as well as my WTI M96 Engine Mechanical classes that are open to DIYrs and it also covers engine assembly.
I just received this testimonial from my last WTI class:
"My son, David, and I recently attended the PORSCHE M96 Engine course put on by WORLDPAC and taught by Tony Callas and Jake Raby. What an AWESOME course, there is so much information in this course, so many tips, tricks, techniques and “Silver Bullets” related to the PORSCHE Water Cooled Flat Six engines, that even if you do not perform engine repairs on these vehicles, it is well worth the price of attendance just so that you know the ins and outs of these engines. Taking this course gives you so much insight on these engines, it is just incredible.
To get the real world, hands-on experience of these two guys is priceless. Jake gives you the details that you need to help you make the decision if you even want to get involved in any internal repair of these engines. The procedures that Jake goes over and the tools required to perform the repairs are invaluable. The tips on dealing with the vehicle owner, your client, were very useful also. The facts that not only are you dealing with a broken vehicle, but a broken client, and how to break the news to the victim are very helpful and insightful.
The personal experiences that Tony and Jake bring to the table and share with the class were phenomenal. By putting together this course, and putting together this incredible information source, Tony and Jake have provided an invaluable service to the technicians and shop owners that service these very complicated vehicles, as well as an important service to the owners of these vehicles. This allows the vehicle owners to have another source to have their vehicles repaired properly outside of the dealership network. Tony and Jake have provided, in our opinion, an invaluable service to the PORSCHE community as whole.”
