And I'll be more than happy to prove your analysis wrong

What about 928 guys?

Also, what if I had another 4 cyl 944?

It's the norm that vghey guys like to bash on the 4 bangers Iam just merely turning the table around 9 out 10 post from the LS dudes is to show how well, how superior the LS or lt1 are in contrast to the crapasil engines as porkshop described on this thread

This is entirely a 4 banger forum some new guys who are barely entering the enthusiast 944 crowd are confronted by rude criticism, while there is plenty of ways to enjoy the 944 besides downgrading to a v8

It's all good, I'm just having fun. I don't give a f*ck what engine anyone has, we still obsess over the same cars to a sickening point. We're more alike than dissimilar

Sorry you're offended a $700 LM7 5.3 engine outruns the $10K 4-banger without blowing a headgasket or spinning a bearing every other run.
As for the 928, I own one of those too with an LS engine. The 928 blocks are also crapasil and just like the 944's are reaching their heat cycle limits.

Iam not offended, funny I have yet to see any of the vghey conversions win a race besides TonyG here in the west there is no vgheys on PCA or POC that I can remember nevertheless win a race, Iam actually sorry that you couldn't succeed with the 944 being mentally challenge and building a reliable 951 don't go hand to hand aren't you glad they have the vghey swaps for those intellectually handicapped

TonyG accomplished it with an LS-948, why didn't he keep the crapasil block and boost it over 400rwhp?
Do you even know the ASTM designation for the crapasil?

I don't remember TonyG ending or wining a race with the old v8 let's see what happens with the 100k corvette he is building

LS Engines have their issues with Rod Bearing spinning as well. You can build a 944 turbo to make good numbers and do it reliably. It just won't be cheap. Conversions if you can't make all the parts yourself can get expensive as well.

Yes, you can break ANYTHING, but the GM V8 won't break the bank.
The Toyota 1GZ v12 will fit the 944 bay with a hood bulge. I've already designed the torque tube adapter and clutch setup.

Not offended by the car, the v8 are fine, it's the sucky attitude of the vghey guys that's the problem, see didn't catch it right? And you never will.

I remember ten years ago I used to frequent the former porsche hybrids forum and the founder some guy called Doug made it a habit to pick on guys on these forums to make fun of them, I started some hell and they banned could not stand my comments, you have a vghey fine enjoy it but don't come here insulting the others thinking you have a the mother of all, is not.
