Default 944s Repair Manuals?

After buying the Haynes manual and seeing it does not cover the S model it looks like I need the factory manuals. I came across this pdf file that is a "5 volume, 2,041page" manual on the 944. In the description the S model is not mentioned. Does anyone have experience with this and happen to know if its what I need for my 1987 944s? Or does anyone know of a cheap source for the 944s manuals? I prefer pdf over hardcopy if possible.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks, that looks like what I need.....unfortunately it looks like he has removed them from the site due to server overload.

I messaged the seller of the pdf but no answer yet. I think I might buy it anyway just to see.

Do yourself a BIG favor and give Sunset Porsche a call 800.346.0182. They had the factory 944 set on sale recently for $110 - which is a super deal. My experience with the online version is a PITA.

There is another site too that isn't as subject to overloads.... anyone know it? And yes, I would LOVE to have these things in real life instead of having to look on\ my computer, so if thats in your budget, i'd definitely go that route.
Anyone know the other website?

I can print copies at cost if you guys want...Hole punched and edge bound. Just PM me if interested and I'll figure out what that cost is. I have access to a couple large Ricoh printers.
