A boxster motor sounds really interesting. I know there is a bit of work necessary to get this done correctly.
These are the main concerns I'm pondering:

1. Transmission - Does Kennedy or someone else make an adapter that will allow a 901/914 to work?
2. Transmission - If no to 1, what other choices are there?
3. Mods - trailing arms need to be moved? or trimmed?
4. Exhaust- custom made?

thanks for pondering, too.
