Thanks all for these info.
That's what you get for asking an air cooled guy for advice on liquid cooled cars. I learned a little lesson in my line of work "believe none of what you hear and only half of what you see".

All kidding aside, I see the tide turning in my region. Where the people and cars turning out for club events in the past were once overwhelmingly air coolded (myself included), we're now seeing a majority of liquid cooled cars.

Probably a good time to remind everyone that when the 911 was introduced it was dismissed by the 356 guys as not being a real Porsche.

I've put 3000 miles on my 996 in the first month I've owned it. It's been a very good month.
