I was introduced to a set of heads for a Porsche a few weeks ago. These
were 930's I believe 911's are similar.
I know I'll get flamed for this but thats ok.
These were overhead cam engines weren't they?
Wouldn't be it possible to modify a block and move the head studs into
position to bolt these up and then create/modify an existing crank cam
belt drive gear from the Porsche to mount on the end of the crank
shaft.
Ignore the cooling shroud questions for the moment-
This seem dangerously easy to me. Has anyone tried this yet?
Say, there Cash - Why don't you try it and let us know? <grin> Probably
easier and certainly cheaper to put in the Porsche motor complete. Now, now, Vair
guys - before you call sacrilege, you will still have an air cooled rear
engined flat six. Closer to a Vair than a Crown mid-V8! Probably not as fast,
though - Unless you corralled the rest of that 930! - Seth
