Under 911 photo gallery, the first car. It's a burgundy targa. It has 180 degree headers. With electric dumps also. Planning on doing the same. but without the dumps. That 180 degree header sound would be more in keeping with the car.

Moderators,
Shouldn't this be moved to the "Porsche Engine Conversion Tech Forum" forum? Scott |

"This forum is for owners combining the best of two worlds - Chevy motors in the cars, or VW chassis with Porsche engines." So, the only remaining question is whether or not it should be move there. A topic discussing a 944 Turbo S in this forum would be moved to the "Porsche 944 Turbo and Turbo S " forum so this topic should be moved to the appropriate forum as well. Scott |

The other half swap to the other side and merge into that collector. That's the half that disappears. I have a pic somewhere on a Pantera that's easier to see. If I can find it, I'll post it. Here's what an LS1 sounds like with 180 degree headers. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MSZTbR6C6Lw H

There has been discussions in this forum on boxsters in this forum before. I have never seen a so called group of enthusiasts actually isolate each other soley based on their own superiority complex. Yes, their is a conversion forum, but this thread has been going for some time now, and now its getting a lot of heat suddenly. Let it ride out, so it can be put to rest...

Some 25+ years ago when I did autobody work, one of the cstomers had a Pantera and a Mangusta. I got to work on both of these cars and I'll never forget the look, sound, and feel of sitting in the drivers seat, even if just for a short hop! I've been looking at all sorts of engine swaps for my car. I like the ease of finding parts for the V-8's but afraid of any extra weight behind the rear wheels. Hearing the sound from the engine in that Corvette is making me rethink my project. Thanks for posting that link! |

I must say this has been an interesting read to follow.(
 )Wondering where you live , has putting A/C on the car been a thought ? (Getting older here,like my creature comforts  )Should be a blast to drive , although rear tire replacement may break you  I've got an ole 350 4 bolt pink rod Vette motor out of a Corvette drag car that I'd thought about putting in my ole TVR , don't think I like thinking the thoughts I'm thinking........kinda like the Catholic school girl down the road that's your friends daughter.........  .Must .......... Resist !!!! ........these THOUGHTS .......

I am still intrigued by the 180 degree crossover-----especially after hearing the sound.
In the pic--the pipes seem to be as I have coloured,but does anyone know what,the yellow pipes are?There seems to be a bypass exhaust from each side [maybe valved?]--but I marked an odd one up the leftside? what a piece of engineering!1

Yes, electronically controlled dumps that allow the mufflers to be bypassed.

Here is a little video with some sound. It is from my very first test drive. This exhaust will only fit if u use the Camaro sump because i just changed to the Corvette/bat model and i have to remove one of the silencers.
