Post by 356lover »

Hi Everybody,

Does anyone own or has seen the Maestro's engine assembly videos?

Are they any good?

I think I mentioned to you last time we spoke that I was interested in buying these, but was since told by someone..(Bill Block from 356 Registry I think) that they dont really show how to do things in detail, perhaps short of close ups etc.

Do you have secrets of the inner circle?

Hello,
I´ve both the tapes and the book.
The video tapes are funny and you will get the most information to rebuilt the engine. The book has more informations of the history from the A to 912 type engine. You will get more informations as from the video and think it´s more useable for people.
I would recommend the book, in my age we grown up with reading a book.

The price for the book is normal, it´s one from the first prints and has an hardcover, with softcover are cheaper.

I recently got the DVD's from HCP research, who also supply the books on CD as well.

I got the DVD's just for info to learn about the engine - and they are suprisingly watchable! Some very interesting stuff on them. Though I'm not sure my girlfriend would agree!
