Porsche Powered Mid-Engine Double Cab

[67dubcab]

Well up to this point the d.c was running with a complete 944 n.a. braking system (braked better than any car I have driven, short of a open wheel race car) steel 944 rear arms, front seats out of the 944, and no cutting or welding to the truck.

The 2270 would be a good engine and as noted the Porsche shroud has issues, I was following the cooling thread back when it started and even tried to contact Sandeep to get some pictures of the air diverters.
I was at a turning point with the dead 1835 and and paid for but missing trans.

I had an idea while crawling around the 944 pulling parts about a mid-mounted 911 engine to a shortened torque tube to a 944 transaxle.
I would have a stock, powerful aircooled engine, a stock 5 speed transaxle with the option of affordable l.s.d., and a balanced chassis.

Thats when the cutting started.
