930 Transaxle
NOTE: All adapter kits listed below are designed to mate an LS series Chevy V-8 motor to the Porsche transaxle. Many other adapter kits are available, but cost may differ according to your motor and transaxle choice, clutch requirements, and application.
The "best bang for your buck" option for a V-8 conversion is the 930 (911 turbo) four-speed transaxle. Originally designed for racing applications, this tranny can handle 700+ HP. It can be modified to be used in mid engine kit cars without turning the box upside-down. Maybe you have a 911 chassis that originally had the 901, 911, or 915 transaxle and you need a stronger transaxle. This 930 transaxle can actually be shortened to fit in a stock 911 chassis. Plus, the stock gear ratios are very nice for higher performance V-8 power plants. At 6500 RPM's, with 25 inch diameter tires, expect speed approaching 180MPH.
NOTE: Prices below include our core. If the customer supplies core, cost may be less.
