FS: 88 Red 944S w/5.7L LT1 $9.99k Renegade Hybrid kit

Vehicle Details
Year : 1988
Make and Model : Porsche 944S
Exterior Color : Red
Interior Color : Black
Auto or Manual? : manual
Odometer Reading : 190kilometers (115k miles)
Location of Vehicle : calgary
Description :

Renegade hybrids conversion kit on a stock 88 944S. The car runs and drives fine. It needs a couple of things to be a solid driver. I am putting the car up for sale to see if anyone wants it before I get to converting it for racing. I will be taking the car over to my shop [edit by mar18].

This car is too nice to be a road racer. It is basically 100% stock Porsche items (944 or 944 turbo), with a vette engine and clutch.

A 4 seater corvette for 1/2 the price.

things it needs (parts on order), I took it into western corvette when I bought it, and I will provide the inspection report, and an update of that stuff done (depending on when you buy it, as I am upgrading as we speak):
motor mount (jegs)
rad and hoses reconfigure (jegs)
rear axle (recv'd)
pw switch (to buy)
intake leak
opti spark leak
header leak on right side (bolts loose from engine mount)

Car has been running and driving for a few thousand miles.

Weighs almost stock, with numerous things taken out that I will be putting back in. I will be corner weighing it shortly to get some #'s.

Has been run at the track a few times with limited traction, ran over 100mph, traction limited, but not clutch dumped.

Please note, this is a LT1 conversion, but you get the basic idea:
944 LS Series

Wow I didn't think there was that much room to put a Iron V8 in a 944.

Maybe it would help if there was a 10 min video of going for a drive
