Very cool video...Thanks for sharing!

Couple of observations:

1.) The Spark Plug install looks a lot simpler here on the video!

2.) I think that second orange robot arm had a bad attitude that day and is likely why my last 996 GT3 developed an oil leak!

Pretty cool looking stuff ...Wish I had some of those specialty tools...they make it look soooo simple!

I have taken a tour of the factory and it is amazing. While we could not get that close in the engine shop, we were just about that close to the car assembly line. For interiors, we were practically sitting at the sewing machines.

I highly recommend taking a tour.
