Guys I am collecting parts for my restoration. My car came without a drivetrain so I am looking at a collection of parts and what makes the most sense. I have 90% of a 95 993 engine that I have been collecting - one side of me says high compression dual plug, hydraulic lifters, torque and turn the key it starts right up without any drama. Or a short stroke - and you know where this goes - dual plug, special distributor, P/C's (not cheap) Carbs probably new PMO 46 (also quite a bill) and then the exhaust system with heat.
Does the factory front motor mount work on a 993 engine? I know the tin has to be married from 914-6 and 993 engine tin. jdorociak@gmail.com Jim |

Just curious how much does a Kennedy adapter for a Boxster transmission move the axel line back ? Seams like a better Tran for the hp

The main issue is there is no support for a starter. The starter is on the motor side, so it only works with V8 and other water cooled motors. Clay and others had to modify the bell housing to make it work. |
