One of my eventual projects is to throw a V8 in the midsection of my Porsche 914. the only problem is the stock 901 tranny cannot handle the torque generated by Chevy V8 that's more than 285 hp. Trying to find a 930 Tranny is hard and expensive, but I could put close to 500 hp with the 930 tranny.

surprisingly, Porsche transmissions line up really well with Chevy engines only needing a little conversion plate.

I do like the SRT-4 motor in our car since they are pretty cheap, engines should be abundant, would open up more room in our engine bay, and cheaper to fix/mod. Keep in mind that the SRT-4 motor's being upgraded to be put in the Nitro so it'll come close to 300 hp OTB depending on when this gets done.

Either way, a forced induction 4 banger in this car would be crazy. Coupled with a decent rear spoiler/diffuser, lowered suspension and a 285 rear tire should keep the Xfire stuck to the ground.
