Yes Please: Porsche 911 with GM LS1 V8 Power [Videos]
By taking a kitbashed GM-sourced LS1 V8 engine and slotting it into an AWD Porsche 996, LS1tech forum member �1dirtyZ� has set out to create something truly unique. Sure, it�s unconventional and perhaps a little sacrilegious...but just look at the Porsche donor car.
It�s a wreck, the victim of a catastrophic engine fire. It has a ruined interior and a body that�s been damaged both by fire and rust. It would have spent the rest its days rotting away in a car wreckers yard if 1dirtyZ had not rescued it.
And even though this confabulation of All-American grunt and German precision engineering is not yet finished (it doesn�t have a rear bumper, for one), it certainly runs and can even be driven around a dirt race track. You can check out our gallery of in-progress images below and a handful of videos showing the V8-powered Porsche 911 running.
