Porche engine
Has anyone tried this?
I know someone with a thrashed 944 in their front yard that they will give me if I just get it out of there. I'm not sure if its the turbo'ed one or not but I might be real interested in trying a swap of this engine when the 13b gives up the ghost. |
Porsche parts = EXPENSIVE
944 NA motor has 143hp or something close to that for the 8-valve motor. Not worth the swap. Either do a SBC, LS1 or 302 swap. If you've got some $$ and want something different but powerful pick a S2000 motor. |
Thanks. I probably will just update the 13b in it when it comes time for her to give up the ghost.
The idea of a free car was good, wasn't sure if dropping the engine in the car would be worth the hassle. I get the impression it won't. I thought about droppign the 289 currently in my Fairlane into car when I go and retro rod the thing (347 stroker in the fugure). I don't know, I may just keep everything stock. |
if the car is functional, it might be worth it to take anyway, just to part out and fund your own swap...
|
Or the hospital bills if my wife finds out that I brought another clunker home.
Better not. |
