You guys are not going to make it easy for me.
The car is still sitting in winter storage in NH so I was hoping I could get the dimensions online.
Any websites that would have this info?

PorscheG96 you the man!
Thanks.
If I go with a 968 6-speed which will bolt right in. Can someone like powerhaus turn it into a 6-speed fully sequential transmission?

Yes it's an 86 NA for $1450 and runs great. Will be parting everything off the car to get my $ back. Going with GT racing 951 widebody(lighter=faster). Would like to go with CF but not worth the money to me. The nose will be a 951 OEM so I don't crack a FG one. Big reds, coilovers, 500 rwhp NA SBC, etc. Looking at $35- $40,000 but it will be a supercar killer at a fraction of the cost.
Why not just buy a Z06? Do the math. To get a Z06 to even come close to running with my dream(right now) car you would have to replace suspension, brakes, body, etc, etc, and this is on a very expensive car to start off with.
Resale you say. Sell engine on ebay and sell 951 with 6-speed seq, coilovers, brakes, etc, as a roller on rennlist.
