Jake, have you ever considered doing a left coast M96 class? I would be more then willing to pay the cost of the class but distance is a killer to where you are. With that said, how close do you come to Washington State?

The WTI classes are on the west coast and all over the country and I travel to those... BUT they are not enthusiast level and not hands on.
To get a hands on, 4 day education on the M96 you have to enter our world and travel to Flat 6 where you'll teardown and reassemble a complete M96 fully upgraded engine. It would be impossible to do this outside of our learning center.

That is what I was afraid of...well I am about 6000.00 into parts from Wayne right now as the last box of parts got here today...and just getting started into the project. It does not crack the engine yet and for that portion, I will make my way to your side of the country before I delve into that portion. Thank you for the response!

$6000 into parts and just getting started??  Heck, Jake will do the complete rebuild for you for just a few more dollars.

Not really... My reconstructed engines start at 18K :-)
They haven't went up in price since 2008, though..

Actually it closer to $8000 when you throw in the new floor lift. On parts it is a total suspension replacement, full clutch replacement to other major components. It grew from a blown shock and me wanting to replace the IMS to... while I'm in there I might as well replace... But hey, I'm not selling this car and it a fun project.

Glad to see you tackle it yourself! Most shops aren't even willing to do this today.
My engine assembly manual will be finished by year's end, then comes the DVD. Working on both of them this weekend!

Will the DVD and manual be one package or sold separately? Let us know when they are available.
