No One Bid On This V8 Swapped Porsche 944 Turbo at Auction... SO WE BOUGHT IT!

[@MusicHavenSG]

Surprisingly other than the 5.7V8, this Porsche is really well taken care of. Quite a nice little Sleeper too, more than double the base power.

[@raymondmarble69]

944's are what brought me to your channel. Great to see you still buying them! Thanks a lot guys.

[@tennnis498]

I wonder why you don’t share the $ numbers, yet ask viewers to decide whether to keep or sell. I mean it obviously comes down to numbers for you.

[@SS1Garage]

Cool V8 swapped 944 .The LS 3 is a little bit lighter motor than a SBC 350 because its aluminum but an iron block LS 1 is about the same weight as an SBC 350 . I have a SBC V8 swapped 944 myself and they are a blast . Ive had mine 20 years and its had many changes over the years .Once you get used to working on them they are fairly simple. I used a 944 Hybrids kit out of Texas on mine . I just put a slick paint job on it last year and added some motor mods as well as a glass sunroof . I have a few videos of it on my channel .Thanks for sharing your find .

[@TheRealGamingFoxy]

Three great things combined Jr Garage, Porsche 944, and a good ol V8!!!

Keep the Porsche content coming!!!!

[@928pcar]

That’s no Porsche anymore

[@adamwright6433]

The 5.7 is what was in the Pontiac Trans AM GTA and possibly the Camaro Iroc-Z for that time. We were still coming out of the Era of low horsepower and focusing on better miles per gallon. This and the Ford Mustang 5.0 started changing and the Vettes started to get back to where they should be, also. Speaking of Vettes (Corvette), guys should buy a couple!

[@fritzah]

L98 was in GTA and IROC, LT1 was in 93-97 4th gen

[@charliecox6701]

Loving the 944 content! My dad had a mid 80s red 944, pretty sure i have an old school photo of me standing up holding the steering wheel (I’d have been 2 at the time!)

[@bkad6238]

You guys need to find someplace you can drive faster than 35mph.😁

[@Phoenixautosales]

I was bidding on this one till the end and stopped so I guess it was you guys that won it lol. My cars were selling on that Sunday at Barrett Scottsdale.

[@rudimerm7686]

That is the 1992-1997 LT1 motor. The problem with the motor is that it has reverse cooling; water flows throw the heads first and then into the block. It also has the infamous Optispark distributor. It was still a great motor though.

[@jobanski]

What a beautiful set up! Everything just seemed right with that car.

[@1dariansdad]

7:07 30 seconds worth of keyboard massage on the old Googler and you paid $11,000 plus fees.

[@roberttowsley8958]

Love any and all Porsche content!🎉

[@rallycrosscraig]

Watching from the U.K, have owned quite a few 944 turbo models including a nice late model which with some upgrades had around 300 bhp which we took round the Nurburgring. This looked like a really good conversion, never seen a v8 swapped 944 here in the uk but sure it would be a huge amount of fun in such a well balanced car.

[@W220MAFIA]

Vantage is a sweet car guys yesterday's video was unique,,, exited for this video thanks brothers

[@WildDigger]

That is a cool swap. Make the profit while you can. Good flip. 👍

[@radiodave1]

Man! At only $11,000 you bought thing cheap! Congrats

[@manstersr]

The real sweet conversion is the LS-2 6.0 all aluminum engine 400hp vs 300 of the LT-1. Renegade hybrids has a few videos of 944, 911, 928, 914, Boxters and 968 LS conversions. The big thing right now is to find a Boxster, 993 or 996 that had an ISB failure and the engine is junk to slap an LS into.

[@Simplyput3451]

It would be great to hear the profit / loss numbers on the 944 LS.

[@dannyllerenatv8635]

Love all the "leaves you scratching your head" cars in the garage, it's honestly at times even more entertaining than a lot of high HP builds or supercar content.

[@TheLEMRR]

Good eye... great find!

[@alpha2turbo]

$11k was a steal for this. Nice non turbos around me go for about 8k. Beat ones are $4-6k.

[@micahproductions9872]

What happened to 3 days

[@WayApp]

Kudos to you for recognizing the hidden gem!✌

[@10amm21]

Should definitely do a "selling 7 cars in 7 days" that hanger is bumper to bumper with an inch between each car

[@Coyote9smilespergallon]

That exhaust sounds great! I always wanted to swap one of these I almost bought a blew up one 15years ago for 2k but couldn’t

[@jonathancolbert6666]

Hold on a minute, 0:34, was that a Porsche 914 I just saw??

[@airgunningyup]

yep

[@thomashelm6931]

I bought one just like it, new, in 1975

[@adriennefoley2906]

Nice start to my day …… Christian fix🥰😍😘

[@ahmedhossainnafis]

Man these cars look absolute bonkers! Really cool

[@Adams5138]

Thinking of LS swapping an automatic 944. Wondering what I would have to do to about the trans…

[@sebastianm.8383]

this looks really like there was never been another engine in this car, it fits perfectly and 400HP, this is the power it deserves......

[@tonyo6672]

Nice watchable channel guys! You always make it interesting, and honest, the love for the things you do come over really well! Good luck to you, and will keep watching the vids.....

[@craigrobertson7938]

Is the 3rd car a lime green 914 ??

[@craigmonteforte6111]

Overall I actually like the 944 design and look I know Porsche Enthusists/Collectors don’t and they were a Porsche designed Entry Car they teamed up with VW to design I graduated High School in1982 and honestly this design was the look of that Era ! I’m a fan of the Original Watercooled VWs and these Scream Scirocco and RX7 which were both hot Cars of the 80s Also Women loved them Another Plus in my book !

[@tomroberson5040]

My brother did a 928 motor swap of a chevy v8 to a 928 porche it was very smooth

[@clangdon1436]

Pull the boat anchor and swap an LS7 in it .

[@bernardwarr4187]

Really cool car, transformation with a v8! Only needs a 3 piece, split rim conversion on those wheels?

[@Doesunlee]

What you selling the porsh for?

[@hamishcruden7623]

Great video, well done, move it on, take a small turn and let someone else take possession...

[@VernonRhem]

With the advent of the turbo i would say turbo restoration is worth it

[@K1forMVP]

First car in 02 was a 86!Porsche 944 Turbo, they’re such awesome cars. I took really good care of mine and it was beyond fast with a few mods and handled like it was on rails.

[@goldenace716]

Yeah honestly, I'd probably do front lip, wheels and tires, and paint match the spoiler the literally leave it alone. That's nice

[@cablelag]

Replace that LT1 with an LS3. ❤

[@peterplague]

SELL IT!!! If it Makes Money, It Makes Sense. Next Car, New Content. Nuff Said................

[@jasonpoletta1797]

The c4 lt1 is iron block its about 100 lbs heavier than an ls1

[@eliduplichan2356]

What auction do y’all go to to get the cars? Just wondering.

[@rendlemansrusticflagsmore4102]

Being a fan of 944's this is my dream. A v8 944. I need this car

[@Skiridr22]

Keep the swaps coming

[@Bilalahmed-p2o]

Wow i love it.. i hope i can build a 944 with a TT V10 someday

[@samcarroll8275]

Im looking up the 944 because im looking to buying a 84 944 to ls swap or k swap

[@samcarroll8275]

Love this car though

Dude!!! I NEED that V8 944!!

[@cchrist58]

[@CharlesDeMar]

I would’ve kept it, but prob better if someone else can use it and take good care of it. Excellent example of a 944 tho!

[@wassiliproductions]

Man wish I could buy such a thing over here, you're lucky with the auctions lol! Would love to own a 944 with a v8 engine :D

[@michaelbolshazy3532]

perfect vegas car! i happen to live in Vegas!

[@drunvert]

Couldn't register it in California, lol

[@drunvert]

Yeah I think about that all the time when I'm watching these videos going. I can't do that now. I can't do that. No I can't buy that. No I can't do that

[@poormansporsche744]

That was an awesome car! Also any update on that 981 GTS?

[@cestusfr]

i would love to see the 944 swapped with the 928 V8.

[@robt8042]

Not happening, too wide with the OHCs.

[@michaelhawkins5530]

You need a bigger garage/storage facility for your vehicles. I have always loved the exterior styling of the 944.

[@waxingchandler3895]

I want to see that 914! Looks like maybe a 74 2.0?

[@LongLongHoneymoon]

It is supercharged you can see it on the left of the engine

[@snflupigus]

Wondered who picked this up, saw it there and wished I would have been registered because I knew it would be stolen based on going the last day no reserve. .. It was for sale on FB market local out of SunCity for 25k. Guy didn't respond to me. I already have an lt1 944, almost identical, but this has a nicer exterior.

[@user-od9iz9cv1w]

Great flip. Nice car. Would be a ton of fun, but when you have 50 cars including that gorgeous 911 LS you do not need it.

[@stoneman8110]
