I have a free 951 engine complete wire DME and I may still opt for a 968 engine in my 924..... Not Lag and plenty of power... but who knows... Still alot of sanding to do.

If I don't use it I will sell it in parts to offset the cost of the 968 motor.

Hmm, buying an engine from a guy who doesn't know ****. Sounds like trouble.

You _need_ the transmission. Or else you will be running through your gears like crazy trying to keep up. Not to mention, the R&P is a really famous weak spot in the transmissions. The NA transmission is about the weakest transmission Porsche ever made. The R&P gets out of adjustment, and tends to shred very easily.

Hmm, free 951 engine? I might need one soon, lol.

The turbo radiator will be an inch too long also, you will need to space out the support an inch to fit it. Speak with Andy, he is very helpful.
