LOL, I'm looking to put an Install video on a thumb drive to include with the UAOS's. Someone is making one now, but don't know if it will "pass the mustard"..

U should make a deal with the Flat Six production crew. They shoot real good vids.

Time to ramp up production, which should keep your costs in check. Good news for everyone.

I think the video is a great idea, but I’d like to see it on the site. Just easier to access on a phone.

Thanks Aaron,Yep, Bobby at RennVision can do some great quality videos. Everyone is so busy that finding someone to "perform the install task on camera " can be an issue though, we'll see.

Already looking for another person to add for production, good help is hard to find these days...

Not sure that I have the time to do video now but I'll be planning to document my install with many photos when my UAOS arrives in coming weeks. It will be coupled with few other things, however.

Well, Skip, so much for “retirement”. Congrats! All your fine work and the product quality...superb. B3 busy? Tell him to shake a leg and get your video in the production line. You’re a player now, big boy.

Hey Guys,

Thank you for the nice comments. Skip is right. Because of the pandemic, my "normal job" has me super busy building course content. I work for an office of online learning.

We've been so busy this year, Jake has had to either record using someone else or attempts to do it solo. Many of his "flat 6 minute" videos have been shot with his iPhone.

I'm happy to discuss doing an UAOS instructional video, but I guess we'd need to team up with Jake to make it happen at his shop?

Again, thank you guys for the vote of confidence.

Congrats, Skip!! So cool to be able to watch the development of a product that has passed such a high bar!

Now about those clutch discs....

Fantastic news! It's not only great work, it's greater perseverance. Many times the biggest battle is showing the value of what you've created. Congratulations!

I saw the UAOS on the R40 engine in the video and asked if they would put on on the engine they are building for my car right now. It was already on their list of upgrades! A few extra dollars for labor, but it will save me the busted knuckles a year from now. With the new engine and this UAOS I'm looking forward to the next 20 years of trouble free stupid grinning!

Thanks for all your hard work!

This just proves it's an awesome product. I have been following this closely since the beginning, I will be doing this to mine in the near future. This way my engine really will be built-proof. Yay

You mean bullet proof? Yes as to the AOS, other parts not so sure. I love mine and it's my daily driver. Since purchased in November of 2020, two coolant leaks and a fuel pump. If a friend was going to buy one as a daily driver and had a budget of $30,000, I'd tell him to spend $25,000 on the 996 and $5,000 on a Corolla or Civic.

100% agree. There needs to be a back up.

Yes I meant bullet proof, darn it. I was pertaining to my LN Engineering engine, which besides the AOS has all the 29? or so fixes already done to it. No it was not cheap.
