engine swap?

Hi, having a discussion with some friends, petrol here in New Zealand having just cracked $2.00/ litre.---thats a bit over $6 US dollars a gallon [I think]
and I mentioned the tech article about a 911 with a 3 cylinder Suzuki? engine transplant-----nobody believes me, and I cant find it on Pelican. I'm sure thats where I saw it a few years back.
Anyone have a link,please.
Thanks, Bob

Found something!----The dementia is not yet complete!
On page 226 of Wayne's '101 projects for your Porsche 911' there is a photo
of a '72 911 coupe with a 993cc Geo Metro engine! by Wayne Sievers.
I'm sure the article was on Pelican somewhere.

How about stuffing some batteries in the trunk and making it into a hybrid -- more work but more advanced...
