I see mostly 911 owners here, just wondering if waterpumpers are allowed to join in on the fun. There's a fairly large group of Metro area 944 guys around, we try to go on cruises every once in a while and I'm sure most would love to drive with you guys every now and again.

Cheers

Paul

How hard is it to drop a 944 engine? As far as I'm concerned, a Porsche is a Porsche is a Porsche. The more the merrier.

I've heard it's a pretty easy drop, except that there's a bunch of this slippery watery substance which pours out of this piece of apparatus that looks like an oversized oil cooler.

I agree, however I must warn repeated exposure to this group will result in the immediate need to drop your engine

Lets see someone insist that the engine and trans should be dropped as one piece in THOSE puppies!

I'm looking at a 400HP 951 as a potential track car.....just one of several possibilities. Hate shopping...love driving.

Regardless of what you might think of cross breeding a small block in a 944 makes for a fast and inexpensive car!


FEWC...it had to happen sooner or later. In fact I am suprised that we have not had any yet. It is not due to any kind of discrimination that I know of. A P car is a P car...
