It probably takes about five to six months to have LN install Nickies, as I am finding out. Hartech is a company that will replace just 1 scored cylinder or one bank, if you only need that and want to stay at 3.6 liters. Dayton Sleeves makes sleeves for the M96/M97 3.6 that are ductile steel or cast iron, and there is another company who installs cast iron cylinder sleeves in the M96/M97 engines whose name escapes me. I went with the Nickies, there is some controversy over cast iron/ductile steel cylinder liners for these engines. Looking at the price for OEM Porsche piston rings, the cost of the Nickies didn't seem so horrible.
