Jake Raby is the inventor of many IMS retrofit products and have been involved with shops across the globe training and developing technicians that service Porsche 911, Boxster, and Cayman cars. He is quite known for his work on providing aftermarket solutions to the intermediate shaft bearing problem that caused a class action law suit against Porsche AG. Listen to the history behind his work and advise on service intervals if your car has had an retrofit bearing installed.

As we kick off 2023, we begin a new era of engine building by merging Flat 6 Innovations with LN Engineering. Our special guest tonight is Sean Burke - F6I first purchaser in the new engine program.

Originally broadcast LIVE on YouTube, this episode is all about the good, bad, and ugly with running a Porsche shop that builds Porsche engines. Lee Jenkins has spent many years with Hartech serving under Barry (Baz) Hart, an industry expert on Porsche engines. Lee has recently been promoted to Director of Hartech and has much to say about dealing with owners and their cars. Hartech is the top shop for anything Porsche in the UK and I'm sure you'll enjoy hearing what Jake and Lee experience on a day-to-day basis keeping these amazing cars on the road for their owners.

INTERMIX is an unfortunate problem that happens to not only Porsche engines, but all water-cooled engines. In this episode, Jake Raby explains the problem of intermix and how to recognize the signs of failure as well as what to do if your car has experienced the dreaded "milkshake".

The engine is being assembled and will be ready for installation into Pete's 29,000 miles Porsche 996 that experienced catastrophic engine failure from a failed 6204 single row IMS bearing. We'll also take questions from our audience. Thank you for your support!
