S5 13B-T in a Porsche 944
So, my girlfriend is in love with rotary engines, due to me, of course, but she also loves the late 80's style Porsche 944. What we wanna do is obviously put an S5 13B-T motor into a 944, and have it be her "and by her, I mean my" little race car.
I'm just trying to see if anyone's ever done this swap, or knows an extensive amount of info about 944s, because I'm new to them. Or even, if anyone knows of a site that covers this swap, I'd be much obliged.
Also, opinions and criticizm is appreciated as well. Thanks.

not sure if the 944 engine to tranny pattern is the same as the 911 or not
but this guy bolted the rotary pattern to a 911 box, he can tell you where
to get the adapter if you want to keep the Porsche tranny.

It always makes me laugh when I hear the FC is a 944 clone. If you really take a closer look at Porshe body lines you'll notice the FC has more styling influenced by the Porshe 929.
Not sure how easy that swap will be since the 944 might have a small tranny tunnel because it has that wonderful (sarcasm!) transaxle.
