Sam the 2012 991 (911) comes standard with elec. P/S integral to the R&P & I assume the new Box & Cayman do too. The waterpumps are so light & have nice bearings so I would guess the weight gain, complexity, & expense of elec. conversion would not be worth it. I believe the best aftermarket part void waiting to be developed is a lightweight aluminum pressure-plate. I believe you were replacing accessory pulleys on your box, did you get the new 987 plastic rollers?
