Hi guys,

Just wanting some initial info about transplanting a short block chevy engine into the 924 engine bay. I have looked at the info about 944 transplants on the renegade hybrids site and have two main questions:

1) Are the engine mounts on the 924 the same as the 944? If not, is it easy to fabricate your own mounts given a degree of welding skill?

2) What is the current solution for mating the chev output shaft to the torque tube assy?

Thanks!

1) Nope. The 944/924S use crossmember attached engine mounts.

2) ?

I think you need to make porschev your new best friend.

Why a Chebby? If you talk really sweetly to Adie you might find out that a Rover is better/easier.
