This is some seriously cool stuff!! I came from JRE's cross over for the EV HMMV, and have been subbed ever since. Cant wait to watch this over the next year or two! Also, as an engineer I am continually impressed with your technical abilities. Not to mention your patience!

Seems like you'll have a lot of good parts that you can sell off.... it'll be interesting to see how much you'll be able to get for the parts vs what you had to pay for the EV components. I'm hoping you'll come close to breaking even.

9:20 as a wise man once said "It can't be seized if it's liquid"

[@savoryflan]

We had a 2012 passat and it's PCV valve would send a lot of oil into the intake manifold. It looks like Porsche does the same

[@ElectricSuperCar]

Interesting 🤔

[@Beef4Dinner22]

Porsche is owned by VAG (Volkswagen Auto Group), so it would make sense that they would try to share parts where possible. If anyone is curious, the full list of brands owned by VAG is Audi, Bentley, Bugatti, CUPRA, Ducati, Lamborghini, Porsche, Scania, SEAT, SKODA, Volkswagen, and Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles.

[@savoryflan]

@@Beef4Dinner22 Precisely why I mentioned the Passat. BTW, the dealer wanted to replace the entire valve cover assembly just to put a new PCV valve; VW doesn't sell the valve by itself. I found an aftermarket seller from Germany that makes the valve and got it online for like $25 plus shipping to the US.

[@SuperMacGuy]

Lots of cars put oil into the intake, PCV systems are woefully under designed in most cars.

[@deanmcmanis9398]

It is pretty wild, not only that you are dropping a powerful Tesla motor into a Porsche, but TWO! As always it is a treat to see how you approach a big project like this, but also it's valuable to see the costs. For the time when dreaming of doing something like this, shifts to actually doing something like this! 😎

[@Sev_Auk]

Really love your content Jeremy. I've been a "battery junkie" for years, building LiFePO4 and Li-Ion packs for various different applications. So, I can totally appreciate what you're doing. I don't know if you're familiar with Richard from Electric Classic Cars, but if so, I have a suggestion, if you'll indulge me. Richard is a massive car guy and has been completely bitten by the electric conversion bug. That's great, but he spends half his time bad-mouthing his old love of ICE powered cars. It's like an ex-drunk, or ex-smoker lecturing people about their bad habits. It gets to be tiresome and off-putting after a while. I do believe that "home-made" electric conversions are super cool, but that doesn't mean that they're necessarily cooler than internal combustion cars. The sound is the main difference. Not obnoxious, open-header, straight pipe, loud for the sake of being loud sound, but just a purely-tuned symphony of sound. Think of a 2004 Ferrari V-10 F1 car blasting through Eau Rouge at Spa-Francorchamps. Or, a Rolls-Royce Merlin powered V-12, P-51 Mustang on a full-power, high speed, low pass. There's a beauty in those things that electrically propelled vehicles just can't come close to. So, my humble suggestion is to continue doing the great work you're doing without denigrating the thing that I'm guessing even you yourself had a passion for years ago. The two can co-exist without maligning each other. Well, just my two cents and keep up the great work. I'm really looking forward to where you're taking us with this Porsche build! :) Cheers, Sev

[@ElectricSuperCar]

I'm exhausted just by watching this

[@shackf16]

Jeremy, I'm excited to see where this build goes! Watching how much trouble you had with the width of the Tesla rear track on the K-1, I'm curious to see how you deal with that here. I know you said the design and customization was a big part of what you enjoyed in the previous build, so I'm sure you have something cooked up to integrate that width into the more narrow Porsche. I know the chaps at ZeroEV in the UK couldn't fit the large drive unit in their Boxter conversion, but they were keeping the stock Porsche suspension and squeezing the drive unit into the old engine compartment. He said it was close, but who knows how "close" it really was??? Keep the videos coming and best of luck on the new build!!!

I think after a couple years on the road, a lot of electric cars are going to have dirt kicked on the bottom of them as well, of course you won’t have leaky oil attracting as much grease, but a lot of road dirt probably comes from tires, or salt and gravel or dust and dirt.

[@ElectricSuperCar]

fair point

[@brianb-p6586]

I agree - most EV builders don't have much dirt on the bottom of their cars because they barely get driven. The Tesla that the components were salvaged from was clearly thoroughly washed before being stripped down, and as a bonus has a full belly pan (like all EVs, needed to protect the battery and wiring).

[@Aragorn450]

Watching you pull apart this Porsche is making me amazed at how compact it is. They have crammed SO MUCH STUFF into these areas of the car, it's incredible. It's a stark difference between the American boats of the '60s and '70s, and even newer too, compared to this. And yes, I know it's a lot of time since then but still!

[@ElectricSuperCar]

Thanks for the comment!

[@brianb-p6586]

All makes and models are pretty well packed now, and the mid-engine Cayman is more of a challenge than most, creating some of the access issues.

[@Aragorn450]

[@ElectricSuperCar]

Too close!

[@brianb-p6586]

@@ElectricSuperCar sheer luck? I'll assume that you measured first, and knew it would be close. These Porsche engines are very wide because of the horizontally opposed configuration, but an inline transverse engine would have had the same issue with this type of lift.

In case anyone was wondering why heat works to loosen a stubborn bolt, metal expands when heated (and shrinks when cooled) its not as drastic as say wood, but it is enough to back out of the threads just enough to pull it free

Jeremy, Another Porsche swap, in California it seems that's all they do. So the question is: What batteries are you going to use and were are you going to put them to give yourself at least a little mileage. After doing my 3 Tesla swaps I know you are going to need some uummph to run that dual setup. Looking forward to seeing the front motor setup and spindles for it. As always good luck and happy engineering.

@@ElectricSuperCar So what batteries are in your future with this build?

[@ElectricSuperCar]

I was thinking of trying the supercells that EV west is offering. I haven't made any purchases yet

[@brianb-p6586]

@@ElectricSuperCar The marketing name used by EV West of "supercells" is hilarious. Those are LG cells designed for backup power applications at much lower discharge rates than an EV needs. They found them to replace the Chrysler Pacifica PHEV modules which you used on your first car, when LG cut off the supply of those. KZbin channels commonly don't allow links, but if you search for "LG Chem catalog JH3" you can find a description of what these actually are, including the information that the JP3 or JP4 "power" cells would be more suitable than these lower-power JH3 cells.

Thanks 😅

[@rthomp03]

I'm really enjoying this project, and I appreciate your attention to detail and your editing that makes it easy to follow without turning into an hour long overly-detailed video. One gripe about this episode though: electric cars aren't really much cleaner to work on. Any car that's been on the road for 10's of thousands of miles will be covered in road grime. Sure, you don't have to deal with as many different fluids with an electric car, but most of dirt shown was typical for all vehicles on the road, and mostly varies by climate (i.e. cold climates might have extra dirt/salt/etc. on the underside). I'd bet if you tried to motor swap a 5-year-old Tesla from Utah, you'd end up just as dirty.

[@ElectricSuperCar]

Fair point

[@vfifty9182]

I'm very curious how you are tackling the CANBUS integration. Will it arm the airbags and safety systems if it doesn't know the engine is on? And all the other thousand things CANBUS runs based on data from the engine transmission etc. I know it can be done but I'm curious how in this case you manage it. I really enjoy your content.

[@ElectricSuperCar]

Coming soon!

[@komentierer]

The airbag control unit is more closely tied to the ABS module (which handles wheelspeed sensors, among others) than the engine . If the ABS module can be retained, it shouldn't be a big deal. Signals from the engine control unit can be simulated. There are usually still some issues, though. The ABS module is designed to compensate for the engine's drag torque, so electronic stability control might suffer a bit in an EV conversion.

[@komentierer]

@@ElectricSuperCar Quick tip from a colleague's personal experience: Never remove the airbag control unit from its position in the car while it's powered and especially while the ignition is on. And don't relocate it. There are gyroscopic sensors contained within. If you flip the control unit, it'll think the car flipped. And then you'll have fireworks and a spontaneous balloon party.

[@TheJensss]

Wow this is really impressive since the car is so complex and you got so little space to work with! Glad I only have my old Volvo 940 to worry about, since that car is extremely simple, solid and you almost got the space to stand in the engine bay while working on the engine. Wanting to convert it to a awd EV after watching your videos, but unfortunately local restrictions and the EU car restrictions for modifying cars make it almost impossible... You Americans really don't know how lucky you are having the freedom to modify cars almost as you like. Anyways, good luck with the project, going to be fun watching the rest of the build!

[@komentierer]

Good video as always, it's great to see the build progress so quickly. Quick tip: don't put the car back on its wheels after removing the axles/halfshafts. You'd run the risk of destroying the wheel bearings

[@ElectricSuperCar]

Thanks for the suggestion!

[@brianb-p6586]

The implication is that the stub axle hold the bearings in place, which is true in many cases; however, unless the bearing fit is very sloppy it seems unlikely that anything will shift enough to cause a problem just sitting. The solution is to put stub axles back in as temporary retainers.

[@komentierer]

@@brianb-p6586 That's not true. Ever wondered why the bolt/nut attaching the axle shaft spline to the wheel hub seems so oversized, even though it's just a hub-spline assembly? Wheel bearings are split-race bearings. The wheel bearing is held together by the compression from the axle shaft bolt. Otherwise it would be under tension, which would destroy it.

[@brianb-p6586]

@@komentierer there are many small variations in design. They are commonly not split-race bearings (and are not in any of the cars that I have owned in which the stub axle retains the bearings), but perhaps they are in the Porsche Cayman.
