What if there was a short hood 911r?,…

Love the amber engine shroud and tin.

All the bolt on goodies!

Seems like the perfect build for those new Swindon heads. If Porsche had build a short hood R they likely would have figured out 4 valve heads by the late ‘80s.

Haven’t driven on it so can’t really say yet but it went together without a hiccup

Jim,
Are those early stub axles? (4 bolt x 2 pin). Very nice work!

Yes. I had them here and on shelf replated and everything so figured I’d use them

Sorry if I missed any of this but,
What is the weight your targeting?
What BHP/torque do you hope to have?
Wheel/tire sizes?

Keep up the nice work.

Don’t really have a “target” weight in mind but my guess would be about 2200-2280?!?
993 3.6 with chip, headers, and exhaust
16 7/8 215/225

This project looks fantastic.

I've just done something similar starting with a 930 shell, 930 running gear, backdated to a 67R/73RSR hybrid and using a 993 varioram and G50 'box. It's just been corner weighted at 1050kg - about 2315 lbs. To the dyno next for a bit of a tune up, hoping to get around 300hp, so around 285hp/tonne or 7.7 lbs/hp. Cat delete, headers, cargraphics back box, 97RON fuel and a live remap by Wayne Schoefield.

Already plotting stage 2 which should get me to 320hp/tonne without smashing the wallet too hard but that can wait a year or so. Want some time playing with it as it is first.
