Okay, so an update on the video. I pulled my records - the engine was rebuilt by Les Long at Air Power Racing - they dynoed it and it generated 135 horsepower at 5000 rpm. -Wayne

It's a glorified Beetle but my Cayman is what a Porsche should look like and has the engine in the RIGHT place!
Where is the Porsche with the TOTAL aero kit?
Old mate in the yellow is annoying, but he has a point. U2 blows chunks.

I am with Sandy, not a fan of U2 I am a fan of the Speedster. Don't they have different heads,like the 2.0 4 cylinder 914

Why don't you keep the Speedster, then buy a Beck 906 GTS, there is a guy with a build thread for one on Pelican, it is Albert Blue

@@TheValveGuides do they call it a 904? You know the one I am talking about, Carerra GTS looking thing, sort of a homebrew, aircooled,Cayman progenitor
Sandy, to us Porschephiles you’re being sacrilegious. Porsche would not be were it not for the 356 and the 911 would not have evolved to be what it is today, were it not for the 959. You are so not making friends with your viewers talking that smack.

Hilarious that Sandy is disappointed that the Porsche family, who produced the VW Beetle, went on to produce the 356…

@@zonoscopePictures it seems Sandy’s preference for or against any given Porsche does not take history and development into account. One of my favorite things about Porsche is its history, hence why my favorite Porsches are the 914 and the 959 over most, but to each their own…
