I need to acknowledge that Jake Raby has been more than generous in sharing hard-won knowledge in answering my questions. And he knows it is unlikely I'll ever be able to afford one of his engines. Though I'll certainly pay full price for his upcoming book-The Definitive Guide to the M96.
Some of his responses are rather amusingly cryptic -but that is fine with me.If someone is too lazy to try hard to learn ... And he certainly doesn't deride anyone for trying to learn about the M96. To be honest,after my engine died in the first week of ownership(!) I would have sold it and gone back to Jags & Miatas if it wasn't for his posts on the M96. It gave me just enough info to decide to remain a Boxster owner and M96 apprentice.Many parts vendors have subsequently benefited(including LN) as a result of his generosity
