I found this on ls1tech, an ls engine is being stuck into a 911 turbo shell, maintaining awd.

scratchchin Maybe monkfish2 could do this

I think it will be interesting if he can maintain the awd system.

i wonder what it would handle like, because like you said the standard 911 engine would have a lower centre of gravity due to it being a boxer.

Suppose it would be fun in a straight line, rear engine, rear wheel drive, loads of grip and lots of torque from the V8

The conversion section on ls1tech is interesting, i think someone on there has stuck an ls1 into a caterham kit car. Suppose it would fit as its smaller than a rover v8.

Quite a few 200sx's running ls1's.

Theres someone on there with corvette engine and running gear In a honda civic!

I know tinker-27 on here has done a few conversions mainly into bmw's and rx7's
