who cares what he puts in it, it is after all his car. like he said the car was/is a basket case. i see no problem in putting another lump in it, just fix that bodywork hahaha.
i have seen some interesting engine swaps, at the art center car show last year some guy showed up with a datsun 510 that had a ferrari v8 in it, what do you think the ferrari camp thought of that?

![]() Click click click, aw forget it. You should report that 72' to the VTK group. http://www.911vtk.com/ It would help track down one less of the 12,962 cars. ![]()

I see no problem with taking a ratty old 911 and turning it into a serious performer as long as everything is done right. If its a crappy old carbed chevy 350 i wouldnt do it. I would however put a 436 Ci LSX motor pushing 600 N/A hp.
This way the handling wouldnt be effected that much, and it would have way more balls then any porsche motor for the money. If you want to get REAL serious. Put in the 436ci ls6 and toss a turbo or supercharger on it like some others have and then you have a INSANE car ![]() Its just a car. Make it as fun as you can, who cares where the parts came from. Shoot, if i had millions of dollars id buy a 997 and put a twin turbo LSX motor etc.. ![]() back to lurker mode |
