The 996/997 watercooled engines except for the GT-3 or Turbo are junk. Everybody I have talked to that has a late model with over 40,000 miles has gone through at least one engine. The quality is gone and nobody will be vintage racing those engines in 20 years. I have to think what this will do to Porsche's reputation. (Though they don't seem to be worried about it, too busy stuffing money in their bank account.) I have heard the motivations for the new architecture engine (from the aircooled) was the labor of assembly.
