the boxster and 911 engines spin in the same direction. the difference is in the transmission. the output shaft on a 911 transmission spins opposite that of a boxster. figure out which way the standard FC motor spins. if it's the same as the boxster / 996, then use a boxster tranny. if it's OPPOSITE a boxster / 996, use the 996 tranny. problem solved.
