gents,

It has probably been discussed here a ton of times before, but here goes.
I have a 931 TRACK car, which has run about to the end of it's developement potential. I now have the chance of a 250bhp 951 rolling chassis, COMPLETE. gearbox, torque tbe, the lot. My question is whether this is a viable swap. The reason i want to keep my 931 chasis is it is VERY VERY light, and the gearbox is on the way out. Now the idea of 250-350 bhp is very appealing, with an LSD in the box, but are there any major technical issues as to why this cannot be done?
I know the crossmember wil need modification, as will the g/box mount, but will the 951 drive train fit straight in??

Regards,

Steve

Wouldn't that put you in another racing class? I would think that it will bolt in with a little work.
