Looking at the 981C parts catalog I see the same part number for the rear disk in base 981 and the 981S , part number 987-352-401-1.

Do people really convert base models to 3.4L engines? I would’ve guessed they would simply trade in their base model for an S. Since Porsche already sells that car, I find it difficult to imagine it is worth doing the 3.4L engine swap...

Since the 911.2 release I have been rethinking my options as I would like an NA car. I searched up Cayman engine swaps and BGB the first name I saw.

I'm very interested in this conversion but I'm not sure if there's any cross border issues to worry about as I live in Canada. If there aren't any hold ups I would love to send a Cayman down to your shop for a road car build.

Give John a call. I was with the BGB guys at Sebring this weekend and saw firsthand the quality and performance of their builds.
