I am considering the purchase of a 911 s engine on this site to swap for my 1.7. However, I would like to get an idea of the work involved to make this happen. Thank you in advance for your help.
Cheers, John |

DONT Mean to be rude But if your asking this question then you have no idea And no business attempting this swap Your in way over you head Budgets for these swaps can run into the 15 to 20 k Range and thats not including the motor . Warning you are entering a slipppppery slope So just makes more sense to get a car already Converted to a /6 I did a big /4:and its a ton of fun for a lot less money I spent 6800$ total including the motor . Correct me if im wrong guys but with the/6 The money you'll be spending on wine and cheese alone Is going to get exorbitant |
