That way I could show off my rental minivan. But, that seemed like work to organize, so, you know.
Only if it's a white van down by the river.....

Well why shouldn't we be continuing a thread 2 years after it started and over a year after the motor in question was replaced?

Mike should be document every second of the new motor's life with pics, images, and 10k word essays

We have to keep this thread alive until Mr. Raby posts the promised pics of the dearly departed deceased M96.

Well, just about to take the new motor out for a spin today. Wish me luck!

See, this is the kind of thread that scares a guy like me looking to buy a 996 to death! Have the day off from work and just got done reading all 52 pages. This thread just convinced me to keep looking another couple of months and use the time to save up some extra $$$ to get a low(er) mile one, but even then, no guarantees....right?

I was hoping 2017 would be the year we wouldn't have to listen to KC go on about that, but now it will be months before he shuts up again. Thanks ***. Thanks a lot
