In a month or so I plan on replacing my transmission. What would you reccomend I replace while doing this job? My clutch isn't slipping but doesnt feel as crisp as it did when I first bought the car. Would the clutch be a good idea to replace while doing this? is dropping the transmission part of a clutch job anyway? Also if I'm putting in an S2 transmission, should I keep the existing early 944 clutch/ bellhousing?

I'm planning some type of engine swap possibly this summer, S2, turbo, 968, LS1? who knows depending on what i can get my hands on...
but I don't want to waste my perfectly good running 2.5L N/A block with no leaks and in great shape?
does anyone know any cars that could take a 944 engine as a swap?

hmmm a 944 powered camaro... I was thinking of something small, and really light. Something that the 145 hp 8 vavle can feel good in. Maybe a kit car? like a custom roadster or something?

the number of blocks and cranks will get less in number in the open market.
I just picked up another full '84 NA for $400. I will be selling off the engine bit by bit
block head oil pump etc

Swapping the tranmission is about 1/3 of the clutch job, maybe even a 1/4. I can swap a trans in two hours, clutch a bit longer, more like 8.
