I just slid the motor into place for some more testing (thanks Black-Back for helping).
All looks good, May have to raise the rear a little or go with some 944 adjustable coil overs. The back end looks killer at the height it sits with the motor in place. The only problem is the motor to ground clearance may be a little low. I want to be able to beat on this and not worry about too much squat. In the pics you can see a ugly 911 monza muffler but that is just for fitment, it will have a custom exhaust when i'm done.
Things are looking good and fitting well. I'm getting excited! B)
