Post Just a thought on the engine swap idea.

If you were going to swap the engine out of the 944, why not do ANOTHER porsche engine?
GTS 5.4L 347HP maybe? S2 Engine, cuz you wouldn't need any cutting to fit a S2, just a new wiring harness and maybe a DME swap if you're pre 85.5...
Just curious as to why someone would go w/ another brand other than porsche... I'd feel ALOT less guilty if I put like a 968,928,944 S2 engine in instead of a ford or chevy maybe.

Their are 2 rennlisters currently in the process of swaping 968 engines into their 944s. I am one of them. Check out the pictures of the donor engine.

I have not even started putting it in the car. And I will not until I find another job. I plan to be unemployed for a while. The tech sector is down.
