Recently, I've acquired a "948" project which began life as a 1987 944S - I took out the V-8 and crazy clutch setup and have purchased a healthy '87 "S" motor. I intend to turn everything back factory, with the exception of the AC system.

Does anyone know of a good source for detailed pics of an earlier "S" engine bay that I could use for comparison? I have a good 3-4 months to get this together as it's been sold to a fellow Rennlister up in Maine who is absolutely taken by the paint job on the car and the meticulous work I've done thus far in the interior and such.

Any help you can give would be great.

ALSO, there are 17" "Turbo 3.6 Speedline" look-a-likes on the car, they are not factory wheels that I can tell...and all I can find is info. on 18" Turbo 3.6 wheels by RH. I'd like to buy two outer rim halves due to "curbing".

If anyone is able to help me out with finding the manufacturer of these that'd be great as well, the new owner loves the wheels (they ARE cool) and one of my tasks is to get 'em fixed.

...I will pull them off the car to see if there is any info. on them here shortly.
Those guys up in Maine must really know their cars!!!

The K&N might be nice. Those powder coated engines look nice also.....but then again you prolly knew I'd say that!

Hubba, hubba.

PJBurgess, please email regarding the airbox and other 944S bits you had offered - I've sent you a few PMs.

OK, NO word from PJBurgess in almost a month - oh well.
Will likely start a new thread as I need some parts now that I've picked up the used engine...
