Default ElectricPorsche.com is no-more...EVProject.com is here!

Well, after a little legal run in with Porsche (yea you guys were right…) ElectricPorsche.com had to be shut down.

I claimed EVProject.com as a replacement site, which is free of copyright infringement and patent violations! Excellent!

You can check it out here at Http://www.EVProject.com and see the progress that’s been made. As of now I have a 924 and I’m proceeding to rip the bejeezus out of its engine bay. (Some pictures of that will be up soon…)

See ya guys later!

Good luck with all of that. It'll be really interesting to see how it all comes together in the end.

Well I guess it can be said that the car "ran" but I wouldn't say it drove....

SEVERELY blown headgasket, and clearly run for a good deal of time in that condition. About a pint of coolant in the system and most of that was oil....and honestly as I take it apart I'm reallly glad I didn't try to gas the thing up. Cracked fuel lines, something that was attached to the intake manifold seems to have been entirely rusted through (something vaccum I think) absolutely NO vaccum was getting created in the car except for the power brakes.

Certainly not the kind of engine you'd want to use. And yes, the motor is quite large!
