Engine Swap Possibilities?
Hello everyone,
I am nearing completion on a crazy build:
72 911
Full Matter Cage
New 350 V8 with moderate mods
930 Trans
Full RSR fiberglass body
996tt Brake Kit
Have yet to finish suspension but probably going with Rebel coilovers.
Should be light and fast.
Here is my question- I really am a Porsche purist at heart and would like to put a Porsche motor in this car at some point. Since the water cooled work is finished what options do you think would be realistic? I want weight and power to be a factor, and would like to be around 350+ HP, I would be comfortable modding a motor. My thoughts keep going back to a Boxster S motor with some mods or even FI. Thoughts?
I plan on driving the car on weekends, some autocross, track days, canyon runs. Already have a 930 and a 997tt with big power so I dont feel the need to build another 930 out of this car.
Thanks everyone.
Seth
