I changed the car back to 100% originality. It was sold years ago so quit with the commenting. I changed it back and sold the car so it's not my problem anymore.
I don't wish to be rude, as you seem like a nice guy, but I was so shocked when you raised the hood. Oh my god, why ? Did the original flat 6 engine blow up, or what ? Also, why do Americans chrome their wheels ?
Hope the original engine is sitting in your garage and comes with the car.. When you can get 550+hp out of a flat 6 I must ask why. I'd rather keep my 930 German and build a Colbra kit car than do this. Put a zork on a 930 if you want "amazing sound".. that said live and let live.. enjoy.
I usually don't bother making comments on cars like this, but to say "this car has a history that other cars can only dream of" is utter nonsense. It's not a history that any Porsche would dream of. Fair play it's your car and you can do with it what you like. But IMO, it's had it's heart ripped out, and is not nearly as desireable now as it would have been when it left the factory. It's well cared for but once upon a time it wasn't..
What kind of V8 is it? If I went through the trouble of putting an American small-block in a 930 I'd go with something unique like a 351 Cleveland or 408 stroker Chrysler.
Gorgeous car, but I have to agree the V8 conversion is a drawback. One thing to do that to my 914 with the Renegade conversion..but a 930 slantnose? Does sound beautiful though, just not pure 930 sound.
YEah - kept mine all Porsche as well - highly modified - 580 lb of torque at rw. V8 Conversion? Ouch. Lost all value etc. Well still a great looking car. Too bad about the conversion. Badgermtn - how about a video of yours?
Yeah, been meaning to shoot a video one of these days. Nothing special, just your basic '87 930 with enough mods to push the envelope of CIS fuel delivery capabilities.
Your car seems to be a monster tire eater. Very nice. You should hang out with many of us on either Pelican or Rennlist 930 discussion forums...share your knowledge.
Nice V8 conversion, beautiful car, but I'm a purest and have kept my 930 a true 930 so as not to affect it's originality or value. Pushing 400 HP with modifications. Would be interesting to go sid-by-side against yours. Bet I would win :-)
V8 i enn 935 hmmmm :-(((((

sadly, the V8 drops your value quite a bit and hurts the sound.
runs good though.

I absolutely covet 911 slopes, but I really cringe at the engine mod. Sad.
Beauttiful car, however.
