944 LS Swap

[bull3t]

Anyone know, a shop or guy who could do a LS swap into a 86 944?

Source the motor too preferably.

Are there any mounts available? Fabrication would cost quite a bit of not..


How are you running the engine...on a factory ls ecu or aftermarket....


i would maybe be interested in something like that for a next winter project.....

pm me your budget and what you wish to accomplish.

Haha come on guys, to each their own.

this is what were talking about...correct? If so, i like them..

Always 944 hate lol

There is a conversion kit from renegade out of las Vegas, they'd do the swap too. I just really dont feel like sending it all the way down there.

If I was to do it again, I would've gone the LS1 route. Waaaay more bang for the buck than trying to get reliable power out if that 4 banger.

I love RWD 80s hatchbacks, and thus 944s.

I was || this close to buying that Gemballa 924S off Kijiji, but the SVO was cheaper and faster.

944 with a V8 would be dirty.

A little off topic...but I'm still looking for a 944 with a reliable 4 banger...hopefully this spring will yield some results.


On topic....

A colleague was telling me about some people who swap buick V6 units into these 944's...

Is that an option ?

[sr20s14zenki]

If gm could make a good v6, sure....but they dont.

way more bang for the buck with LS.

To be more specific he was talking about the Grand National V6's.

I'm not as much of an engine guy as most of you but it seems like a cool swap.

The only good Porsche is one with an LS V8 in it.
