Possibly the best-looking headers I have ever seen.

What do you mean add? He has an SVX engine in a Porsche body. He made them for his car so it will run, he's not selling them.

I am really interested in this. I can get a 79 911 for a pretty good deal, but the block has issues, and it leaks oil. I had definitely thought of stuffing an SVX engine into it, to get smooth, reliable HP that won't have astronomical part prices....but the problem I kept running into was COOLING. How do you intend to cool this thing? Where are you going to put the radiator?

It's understandable...
A couple bays down from me, this morning:

Thanks, and good luck. I think you should build KITS for this swap. I'd buy one in a few years. |

I'm using -20 and -16 stainless braided line up to the radiator. I will be running the line along the rockers where the factory put the oil cooler lines, and A/C lines.
If I keep getting as much positive feedback like I have been getting, I will definitely make some kits for sale. |

IT'S ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Freakin' amazing. I love the feeling you get the first time the engine fires! The exhaust note is AMAZING! I still have a few things to do before I call it a complete success, but I am thrilled! |
