That sounds like a dynamite project. The engine sounds close to mine. Your tranny sounds perfect for the Florida interstates. If you can mate brakes and wheels from a similar source, I recommend it from personal experience. I'm sure there is a nice shameless plug discount attached.

Lanner, exactly. Not as young as I used to be and really enjoy those
creature comforts. Especially since I got rid of my 911 and replaced it
with an Infiniti, getting a little more spoiled...lol.

Boxster brakes would be sweat!!! The only reason Im running the CB brakes
if because i have them and it will get the wheels on the car asap. But Im
definitely interested in a Boxster upgrade down the road

I put almost 5 rolls od Dynamat in my car. Yes it is heavy but it is quiet. Next time I will use "Lizard Skin" for the sound dampaning. It is 1/4 the weight and does a better job.

Summit Racing has it. There's one for sound, and one for heat. They can be used together. Also, they are water based.
