Default Question on paper repair manuals

I'm printing out a paper version of the scanned repair manuals for my own use, so I can refer to them more easily in the garage.

Can anyone tell me what the contents of each of the original 9 grey binders is? Do they correspond to Volumes I - VII and have something extra in the remaining two binders, or have some of the repair manual volumes been split between more than one grey binder?

e.g. Volume IV (suspension, steering, HVAC) - does this volume exist in a single grey binder in a Porsche-printed original? (I've printed this volume - either the paper I've used is too heavy, or its thiiiick, or its split)

If they have split some of the binders up, it would be great if someone could highlight the split points, or just confirm that they're split by Volume number.

Thanks!

That's a lot of abuse! The "big advantage" of the Jim M CD set is that the text is searchable and indexed for you, making it a lot easier and quicker to find stuff on the CD. Most folks print out the pages they need for a project as they need them. I usually end up with a concoction of WSM pages, plus a symphony of supporting Rennlist posts, Service Bulletin pages, Tips Pages printouts, and notepad pages before I'm into any serious work. There's a lot more to the "manuals" these days than what the factory gave their dealer techs, thanks to the efforts of all the loyal owner/contributors.
