In that case I apologize, but I'm having some cam shaft issues so I may have read more into it than there was. This car is kicking my ass! I've never had anywhere near this many issues in such a short time period with an aircraft.

Hey, no sweat. I just noticed your "Location" was Milford. When I was first at Ft. Riley I lived in Milford for about a year. Small world, eh?

It is still moving forward Promise

The key is: we will not be Microsoft and release something that is buggy and needs patches updates every two weeks.

I sold those sites to focus on product development and racing.

For 26 years I have given away 99% of my Porsche knowledge and watched others capitalize on it with different parts/pieces. Not this time.

Contrary to popular belief, I'm not rich. Funding these projects costs a lot of money and lot of time.

FYI:

The LS series engines fully dressed with oil in them weigh 40-50lbs LESS than the Boxster engine and carry most of the weight i the crank and rods (same place a 986 engine carries it)

The handling arguments are hilarious.. Install a V8 into a 930 turbo and watch the car sit 3/4 of an inch higher when you set it down. It didn't effect the handling of that car, and it will not adversely effect the handling of the Boxster.
