Default Tech Spec Books - Online

I am hosting the Tech Spec Books on Google docs for your referencing pleasure. FWI, I prefer the GT/GTS book becasue the values are listed in ftlbs as well as Nm.

Enjoy.

A true gem !

May I put up a link to those docs in the 928 forum of the Swedish Porsche Club ? Those booklets hold alot of information and are very useful for the DIY 928 owner.

So this can now become the archive area I was talking about! How does one go and post such material on google books? Does one need permission from Porsche to scan and post documents, tech books, brochures, etc?

Cool, just checked it out, pretty straight forward. I will try one of the paint code brochures to see how it will come out. We should add all these links to one thread, lets call it "928 Document thread links" and like the picture thread one can post the link there for easy search.
Only question I have is how long do these links last?
