Dave,
Not true. I'm in the final stages of putting a 3.8L 997 Carrera S Crate motor in my 2002 986S. It is being done by FVD in Florida. Yes, the electronics were tricky with the Canbus vs. the new bus, and the replacement of the Motronics to a more modern version, but they have gotten it done and it will be back in my hands in a couple of weeks. Everything including the variocam plus will be working fine.

Dave
