obin is right in that if you were to find a boxster engine, it would be very expensive, and not a very good power value.

WHOOPS! i meant the early 944 S2. thought one thing said, typed the other. yeah i know the engines are about 10hp off from each other, but that's semantic considering the boxster is mid engined and the 944 is front. the weights are close too, but not exact.
