Jake..that sounds pretty cool. I had a blast tearing them down and putting them back together.

Tippy is pretty close to how my school works. I had to go to uti for a year and a half to get in to the program. They only take 20 people a year...its really hard to get into...

Tippy

Good job! We need some good mechanical knowledge for our cars.

Jake Raby

AND We'll be offering step by step instructional DVDs produced in house as well. Things are getting much better for the M96, Boxster and 996!

Jake I want to ask you some questions:


One of my friends is an independent Porsche specialist in Madrid (Spain)

He works very very fine and learnt all about his father, who was an eminence in Porsche Motorsports 30 years ago.
In Madrid Porsche owners who love our cars don't leave our cars in offcial Porsche dealer because they don't work as they ought to.
My friend usually do reconstruction of air cooled engine with care and the clients are always very satisfied
I'm going to talk to my friend if he wants to begin with your program and being first specilist in Spain who could offer an upgrade M96 system from yours.

Would be any problem to purchase the internal pieces from Spain?
Are you doing a special contract to get exclusive deal and support?

Thanks


It seems to be very interesting

One more question about the oil filter you made:

As my technical english isn't enough rich to understand properly, I'd like to know the way this filter works.

You say in your web:

This also makes changing your oil a much simpler (and cleaner) task. No longer do you have to handle changing out the cartridge, worry about contamination of the oil filter housing, or thinking you have cross threaded the cheap plastic filter housing!




So, Do I replace the OEM plastic oil filter housing for this one?
And , Does your new oil filter housing fit as eternal piece?

Tippy...I know alot of people have bad opinion about dealer techs...I am going to do all i can to change that. I have pretty much dedicated my life to these cars (and i am not just out of high school...i got a college degree and left a very good job to get into this program) and plan on doing the best job i can on theses car everyday.

This piece takes the place of the current plastic outer filter casing. See the part with the threads and the rubber o-ring just like the current filter casing. The first picture shows a Black oil filter partially threaded onto the unit.

WIth this piece installed you buy/use a different style filter that threads into the golden looking threads... A spin on filter like most cars use.


The question I have is how does this allow/facilate the use of an accusump? Is there an oil port on it somewhere?

Thanks

Thanks Paul

So with this new oil filter housing, you must use a different oil filter.
Would it be easy to purchase? or , Must we to order the oil filter to Jake?

I think you talk about this type

Jake Raby

Yes, the filter is a standard spin on that with the adaptor takes the place of the plastic housing and cartridge.

We include one filter with the kit, but there are two alternatives off the shelf that can be bought at any auto parts store. No more necessity for Porsche parts.

I am less than satisfied with any plastic part thats in my oil system, it yells CHEAP and trouble at the same time.

One of the units does allow the accusump to be attached as it has a tapped fitting in the inlet and outlet of the adaptor for a easy access into the main oil system of the engine.

Another doubt:

So in the piece which susbtitutes the plastic housing we must change the rubber O ring every oil change, apart we change the oil filter too. Must we?

Here is a link to my first post in rennlist (My friend independent Porsche specialist):

a complete translation of my friends engine magnesium rebuilding job

Jake Raby

The rubber O ring and the entire adaptor says installed onto the engine permanently.. All you change is just the spin on filter, like most any other car... Its much cleaner and offers better filtration AND it removes plastic from the oil system.

We are assigning international agents now, I'd have no problem dealing with your friend in Spain, we ship world wide daily already.

Thanks Jake
I'm going to talk to him about this.

Ok I guess there are no core engines out there on this forum, I had thought about getting a "non overheated " core (blown) engine to jump on Jake's bandwagon and go through Jakes and L&N engineering process, and come out the other end with a bullet proof 3.4 upgrade spare engine, or an install in my 99 or 01 996. Guess it wasn't to be, salvage folks i've talked to wants way too much $$ for what I was told not to get overheatedcore due to possible head damage, nothing else seem available.i.e... ims, chunking etc

Thanks Jake for the telecon info, I'll keep looking

Roy Seyferth

Jake Raby

Roy,
We have core engines... The salvage guys part the engines out and make 4X more money than they can by selling them to you as an assembly.

This thread and Excellence magazine article are one of the best discussion we had in the last year. I love technical arguments.
