If somone like Raby can make a basically stock motor to put in a boxster to replace a blown motor - not an upgrade, not a custom job - just a basic "stock" motor to swap in - and do it as CHEAPLY as possible..... basically recreate the same motor that Porsche sells - not crap but not some balanced/blueprinted "perfect" engine...

how cheap would it be? it seems like prices are still near $10k for the engine..

i know for me - if my motor goes - the car is going to be junked. I'll be pissed as hell, sell it to someone as a parts/project car - maybe i'll score a few grand for it...and write it up as an expensive lesson.

would I buy another one? maybe...but to be burned that bad in terms of lost $$$ - i'd only buy another porsche with a warranty...
