928 engine into a 944 NA... does it works?

[Wardog]

I have a complete body of a porsche 944 NA from ´86, the engine was stolen two years ago.....too bad.....

Anyway, I was wandering if the porsche 928 V8-engine would fit into the 944, I want to restore the car, but also I want to restore a car with some more Hp´s.....I´ve heard that there is a converssion with chevy engines, but a porsche without a porsche engine............ is no porsche at all...... so, if any one can help on this.........thanks..........

In my opinion a 944 with a 928 engine is not a Porsche either. Don't know but since a 944 was 1/2 of a 928 there may be issues with suspension / handling. Just guessing...

Short answer is no, a 928 engine will not fit in a 944.

Always pushing the envelope, the latest at KELLY-MOSS. Take a look at our latest creation. A V-8 powered 944GTR. Leave it to the Pro's at KELLY-MOSS to pull it all together. This power plant has been one of the top priority's at KMR for the past couple of months. The 928 engine has spent many hours in R&D to make it one of the best all aluminum V8, 4 cam, 32 valve engines ever. Along with plenty of other modifications the EFI Technology engine management, custom stainless exhaust, and individual throttle body injection make this beast roar. This 700+hp engine will definitely get some serious attention at the track (Official dyno results coming soon). If you are looking for something that is truly unique, let the KMR research and development team build your dream. Above are pictures of the car with a mock up engine, below is one of the actual KMR-928-V8'S.
