I hope I am posting in the right area, but I saw the engine and transmission for a Boxster at the local pull-a-part yard, already on a pallet. Today I saw that they had a price on it, $510 and some change.
Winston Salem, NC, wanted to give a heads up. I can get the year and more info if anyone needs.
I just want to help folks out for, to me, what seems like a cheap engine/trans combo
Did you notice if it was a five or six speed? I've been told that the six speed is much stronger.
Year would ID the size too.
Someone should stick it where the back seat used to be in a New Beetle driving the rear wheels, put "Poorsche" decals on it, and take it to PCA events...
In reply to BlueInGreen - Jon :
If you squint, the new new Beetle looks like a 356 coupe. Its perfect idea.
1997 5 speed, apparently.

034 sort of did this already, although with a Golf shell not a NB, and with an Audi V6 not a Porsche engine, but the rest of it was Boxster parts. No reason the Audi engine couldn't be substituted for a Porsche one and the NB shell used.
If it was closer I'd snag that in heartbeat.
