I wouldn't exactly call it a fit if you have to hack away metal from the front of the car, fab a new front end and run without a hood.

Sorta reminds me of this thing: https://rennlist.com/forums/928-foru...ight-here.html

If all else fails, cut a big circular hole in the hood! It'll be fiiiiiiine.

Don't worry guys, the hole in the hood serves as weight reduction to make up for the 200lb extra from that 928 anchor..

yes, norway or finland or something,
something about it having to have a carb for some rules or something.
it probably would fit under the hood, if you look they have rearanged, the runner, but check the head/cam pulley, its about the same area/height as the stock 944. and the intake in the 32v motors is more recessed.
