I'd pimp it. Innovative way to solve cooling.

I don't have a problem if the guy want's to put a Vette motor in a 911, but did he have to make such a FUGLY cooling system.
Even if I had the time and money, I don't think (as a racer) that fitting the Vette motor is going to make it a better 911. Let's be honest, those old 911's had "adventurous" handling in unskilled hands and adding even more V8 weight further back and higher up is really going to improve things.....NOT. Secondly, 911 transmissions are not bulletproof, but they are damn expensive. It won't take long for that big Vette motor to break something and then your wallet will cry. What do you end up with? A 911 that cannot corner very well and that you dare not drag too often. So you end up travelling from car show to car show with your boom-box sound system, impressing the bling-bling idiots. Sad!

Hey Stef, if it makes you feel any better, I would have preferred for them to have used something different, like maybe a bug or a mini. I think a Porsche is too special, especially a 911, to have done something like that with. I would have used the motor for the engine to pay for a tt setup, and an updated body package, like maybe a 993.
