A little gratuitous engine porn: (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-1143-1229836904.jpg) I started this project years ago, and it got sidetracked by life (layoff from my job) and a bad crankshaft. Original 4.0 Build Thread I am glad it is finally going again. Wow! Porn is apt here; I'd want that pile on the dinner table, so I could look at it while I eat! |

Details, I want all the details of what you've figured out. I've heard about these 4 liter monsters and I want to see just what it would take to make one work in a teener.
I'm thinking about a creamsickle six-pack project |

I can't even find a 7 speed for sale. And I don't know if it can be run as mid engine. |

Why would you want the 7-speed?
It's only there for mpg, they put a 6-speed in the 'drivers car' 911R, if that tells you something... Boxster box may be fun, if you can get it to fit. Cable shifter would feel nice too. |

Losing my mind... Group: Members Posts: 2,476 Joined: 26-May 06 From: Charlotte, NC Member No.: 6,073 Region Association: South East States |
I plan on using a Boxster 6 speed for a transmission. How?? Bubble gum and bailing wire. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Seriously, I have been researching this for a while now. I will document it here for everyone to see. Please do!! I would be seriously interested in having you do one for me if you can figure out how to do this...the idea of a cable shift 6 speed in Papa Smurf has always intrigued me... |

Clay what kind of power can you get out of a built 4.0? 325-350? That's pretty good.... I'm just guessing. No real idea. A stock 964 motor with a free flow exhaust and a chip can make 300HP. I ma hoping for 325, but I have no idea what it will be. Other than more than I have now. |

It was a tiptronic car. The owner drove it gently and did regular oil changes. So it makes for a great core motor. Anyone need some stock 964 pistons, cylinders and rods? I have them cheap... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

Update.. no pictures.
Cases are stripped, including the studs. As soon as I can find time they and the heads are off to the machine shop. I put all the case studs in my eastwood bolt tumbler. Pulled one out for a sample after and hour. It looks good. Tonight I am going to let them run some more, and pull them tomorrow. Then I go through the parts boxes, and get all the nuts, bolts and washers and put them in the tumbler. I also have to get the cam carriers and assorted external engine parts off to Zims to be cleaned. |
