996.2,
This video series specifically covers the assembly of the M9X engine. It will assist DIY and Professionals alike, with the task of assembling the M9X engine from scratch.

Woohoo Prime Video!
That way I can get it digitally, and watch it at work and at home.
Hope it's out before long so I can ask for it for Christmas...if I can wait that long.

I remember those pads.
If my memory is good they are about 4-5 inch long and are usually 500-1000 watts.
They are peel and stick but need to be sealed with silicone.
The only problem I can see is the surface of the M96 pan is not smooth and have ridges so it might be harder to have the pad stick to it.
I do live in cold climate so we are used to see theses system either for oil pan but mostly for coolant which is a probe type heater but I never expected I would need one of those as I dont drive the car during winter months. The coldest temperature the car would see here is around 42 deg F.
Im now wondering if you heat up the oil, let say an hour before running the engine without the engine , will it release the moisture from the oil without eliminating it as it would normally if you would drive the car for an hour?

The one I used had "boot hooks on 2 edges, and you laced it around the tank, it was a Moroso IIRC,
I did get to wondering if anybody has installed a pump style engine heater on a 911.. Heating the water would help too..
Would make for short warmup on a colder morning.

Yes, consistent with the anecdotal experience from the Spec 996 group, which has probably been the best real world test bed for M96 motors being pushed to their limit. Keep em full of fresh oil and run em hard. (And whatever you do, don't over-rev them on the downshift, even a little bit.)
I have stacks of papers published in peer reviewed engineering journals that directly point to the fact that oil has a huge part in all of this. Time permitting I've been digesting them into a condensed form which I plan on sharing, but it's been a project I've been working on the last 11 months.
Based on the available research, higher ZDDP and moly levels along with increased HTHS vis would seem to help extend the UMW (ultra mild wear) regime for aluminum bores.
A paper published by Toyota that I came across this morning indicates that sulfur in fuels and interactions at low engine temperatures below 40C create acids that cause accelerated wear in MMC bores, like Lokasil and Alusil.
Although some think it's extreme, more frequent oil changes are the best step to extend the usable life. Those cars driven in cold climates or very short distances where the oil never gets to temp are those cars that will have the highest bore and ring wear.
