The time has come to cash out on the 3.4 conversion. Here is a quick rundown on the specs, 1997
Boxster with a 3.4 conversion. Conversion was done by Scott Slauson, the PCA National
Tech advisor for the Boxster at the Local dealership Using the FVD kit. Motor was removed
from a wrecked 996 and had less than 40k Miles when the conversion was done. I have put
about 6k miles on since that point.
The base for this project was a Salvage 97 boxster that came out of Florida with some
water damage. The car was not completely submerged and worked well for my intentions as I
was going to and have replaced everything. There are still a few non-driving issues that
I did not address, primarily the soft top as I prefer the hard top for just about all
driving.
I have recipts totaling about 30k and have spent much more on the car, due to the salvage title situation im guessing that my best bet here is to part the car out. If someone is looking for a race car foundation, this would be a good choice. The car is quite stunning and I would be willing to let it go for 19k. I have lots of pics that I can forward, my email is
