The Chevrolet Corvette Ls3 is one of the most popular motors of all time. With a massive amount of motor swap vehicles built around the Corvette Ls3 platform. It is easy to see why the Corvette Ls3 is such a popular choice once you work around them.
The Porsche 911 is one of the most famous and storied vehicles ever built. The Porsche 911 comes in several variations including the very capable Porsche 911 Turbo models. The Porsche 911s horizontally opposed 6 cylinder engine mounted in the rear is one of the most unique designs to come from the factory.
So, it only seems like a match made in heaven to combine the power and simplicity of the Corvette Ls3, and the timeless design of the Porsche 911. When motor swapping a vehicle, nothing ever goes to plan. Especially when working on a Porsche 911. So, lets see how well this Corvette Ls3 v8 fits into the back of a Porsche 911 that was never designed for it!

800+ hp in that car will be awesome.
I'm thinking of an Ls3 into my 986s boxster. The m96 in it has no modification support because it's a poo engine.
There's no point rebuilding it to turbo or leave NA. The cost is ridiculous.
Did you say where the kits are available and I missed it?

I have my mine LS3 That needs the camshaft
Thank you
I want the shaft please😂
@@williamfrater9862 I want to do a 4.8 l s Crank swap it into the 6.2 LS3.... Yeehaw....
Man, huge respect for your skills and knowledge. Is a lot of fun watching you both tear down and build the motor. The sound quality is on point!
I want the shaft! Still!
Oddly cathartic lol
I love a good LS swap! Can't wait for episode 2!
I love how he just gets right to the point doesn’t take episodes. Also I want the shaft
I love how organized their shop is.
Same!
It's crazy how much of a massive improvement the LS is in that chassis
How can you know its an improvement if the car aint finished and they heavent driven it on the street nor the track? We dont know anything!! That stock gearbox will brake in to a thousand pieces when they put turbos on that engine!
@@MaciusSzwed lol they aren’t the first to do it it’s a solid swap
@@masonshafer811 surely that anchor would change the way it handles
@@masonshafer811 Lol fool, I know people that did this in the 80-ties!
@@Agent_Clark the LS engine weighs almost the same, if not less, than the flat-6 that it replaces.....every person I know that has done the LS swap says that the back end feels the same and that the balance isn't that much off before doing suspension adjustments.
Can't wait to see the finished product on the LS swapped Porsche
In addition to, wow what an idea, thank you for having such an organized shop, seriously.
A 911 without a Porsche flat six, is a soulless 911. RIP my lady.
it’s so satisfying watching y’all just rebuild motors!! also i want the shaft
Hoovies Apollo 911 comes to mind. His seized due to not having a baffled oil pan. LS was not intended to be backwards and sloshing around that way.
Seen this done b4 but not with turbos it's a whole other level,keep the content coming it's awesome 👌
This ain't a real Porsche anymore without it's original Porsche engine.
This is a PorschVette
I want the shaft 😳
⏸️
That’s what she said
Huh
@@jacksavage2612 it’s a joke.. you never heard that one?I know you were replying to the post for the camshaft
You heard him! Give him the shaft!
This is quickly becoming one of my favorite car channels on youtube.
it is insane how much I love this video you guys are killing it very exciting thanks for great content
Insane? Can't you just say "yep, liked this a lot, will be back for more." . .
Awesome look forward to seeing it running, going to be a beast!
I want the shaft😊
I hate to say this but that sounds kind of G.
That's what she said. Usually in the back door. Life is good.
I seen matt a RUclipsr in one of his videos drive a porsche with a coyote motor in it and it was badass. Matt said it was amazing
You know i want the shaft! 😅
AWEOME! I had the Lottery, I would have one in my Drive way and go to Porsche Shows with a BIG Smile.
Nice to look how you open and fix the LS3 motor. Nice project put that in the Porsche.
viper swapped S-chasis? LS Swapped 911? This has got to be the channel with the best content on youtube rn.
This really makes me want to find a car that has a blown engine and swap it out for an LS! I've seen this a few times and the more I see it, the more I want it!
I'm a Porsche fan but I really like the swap, thanks!
Lots of parts/money put into it, I would have at least put in bearings and likely forged pistons/rods too. If your going to have twin turbos, might as well be able to take advantage of the boost. Seeing metal has been in the oil from the cam, at least check bearings.
Looks like they have a few spares on the shelf
Great choice with the CPE components! I have a 996 CPE car and I love every little bit of it.
That’s impressive that’s a huge motor into a small space 👌should be a monster
You obviously haven't seen a 997 TT dropped from the pan, it's essentially the same size.
ls engines are very physically small and light for their displacement, one of the advantages of pushrod engines :)
Totally awesome to see in person, can’t wait to mount mine in my 993 this week.
Since the rear motor plate is on bushings, I suggest adding a secondary support up top after you have your intake piping, since it might flex a bit, maybe the bottom takes care of most of it, but it might help if you're getting weird weight transfer behavior
Nice work on the sponsor integration 🙂. Regardless of who the sponsor is it's nice to see a channel do more than just read off a blurb
I want the shaft!
Cradle the balls and swallow the gravy?
I WANT THE SHAFT! Can't believe you guys are doing this swap, probably the coolest thing I've seen yet!
I really hope you put lock tight on the motor plates 😮
I would tell myself that it will probably have to go in and out a couple times to get the turbos on - but forget to lock tight in the end 🤣
The car is worth millions now, coolest build i have ever seen. Thank you all for this one.
This is the only Porsche content I can stand to watch 😂
We pissed a few Porsche people off putting an aluminum Buick 215 v8 in a 67 912. Great and easy swap except plumbing the radiator
Man im dying for the next video on this car. Im tackling this swap in the next few months on my C2S and this was a huge motivation boost to complete it.
Awesome! Any questions feel free to reach out I’ll do my best to answer!
I'm sure you're aware but Comp makes air cooled turbos as well, super nice in tight spots like this
Yes. I opted for coolant cooled because it would be easy to cycle it in, and this will be a street car that gets driven alot. Given the proximity to motor heat, we decided it would help!
These shows are absolutely fantastic. Is the part 2 out yet? I can not find it. Incredible accessibility to the V8 from below, spark plugs and exhaust.
I have to see the rest of the installation on this Porsche. Great video guys!
i’m sorry you did WHAT
Fantastic video. Boy did I learn a lot. But where is the conclusion of this project and a test run.? Am dying to see the rest of it.
The Porsche mean while is like hey,, hey, what are you doing to me,, hey this isn't in my contract,,,
Great editing ...no BS!! that motor went in really nice , what's weight difference between the LS & boxer?
Prob around 70-90. Equivalent to adding half a male inside your trunk 😂😂😂
Probably not much
the boxer has 6 cylinders and is angled 180° in a flat shape, the LS has 8 cylinders and is angled 90° in a V shape
Well wait It actually weights less than the porshe.
From what I saw on some forums.
The Porsche engine is an average of 450 lbs for early versions.
The ls3 is an average of 430 lbs.
Without accessories, engine assembled mass only. 😂
@@TrojanLube69 I believe it, I think people don’t realize how compact and light in weight for being a V8 an LS is. Coyote motors are huge even next to a 7L LS
These kinds of mods are underrated. The 911 is a beautiful and brilliant car.
I want the shaft! Loving all the crazy rebuilds and Corvette content!
Your boy got some welding SKILLS!
Huge challenge, how much more weight did it add and did it compromise the handling?
Same weight as a stock flat 6 NA engine .. 200 lbs lighter than a 997 turbo engine
Center of gravity is a little higher but i cant say about handling since i havent done it yet .. but getting ready to do it next winter in a 996
man i can’t believe they are putting a ls3v8 that is really cool that they are putting the ls3 v8 on a Porsche now that is bad ass i love there content on youtube
I really like the welder, he's cool. You really can't get more than about 400HP out of an M97 engine rebuilt to 4.2 liters (which makes for a fantastic car) so if you want more HP and you're not a purist (no 996/997.1 owners are) then by all means swap to a simple Chevy engine. I would R&R Porsche engines singlehandedly all day long including tubos and often you'd have 1cm/1/3" clearance between breaking shit and not ha ha. The $500 lift table from Harbor Freight is a great help in engine R&R on Porsches.
"I WANT THE SHAFT!" lol
I love that SWAG bandsaw holder!
I use a hammer and socket with a block of wood in the combustion chamber to support the valves, a light whack to the socket and the keepers pop right out and are contained with in the socket
Your guys video helped me get through a very tough time today. Thanks!❤️
Had an old Ford van I did that to .
Plenty of HP excellent fuel mileage .
An fairly cheap to do !!!
A balanced blueprinted small block 400
About 430 horse .
Would smoke tires at 35 mph until I let off .
Dana 60 posi.
An overdrive trans is only thing I can think of ...
People just don't think of a van as fast but this was !!!
Top Top Top Porsche 911 V8 😮
Finally a proper motor in these kit cars!
DUDE!!! after watching how their shop is setup with how organized it is, I want to work here!!!!! seriously, are you guys lookin for help? lol
...........watching how nice their shop is make's my ocd happy...............lol
@@GeoTrashPandatool box makes me want to go throw mine away and start all over. 😂
@@operatoreng I know, right!
Thoughtful brother, you must be close and really love him . I can't think of too many things nicer one could do .
What a beautiful weapon
There’s just something special about the 911 shape
😍
Awesome video! Long content but not long winded 🙌🏻
That flat 6 would look nice in my 914
I would enjoy that camshaft
Hagery W/ Cammissa, Doug Demuro, & now Scraplife garage
Just a tip on the valve guide seals use a extension and socket and push them on by hand should go one fairly easy with some lube.. Keep up the good work..
I really don't want to say, "I WANT THE SHAFT!" But I want the cam. So, I want the SHAFT!
OOOh that's a nice install. Awesome job lads.
B.O.H.I.C.A = Bend Over Here It Comes Again ! Give Me The Shaft ! LOL !
😂 in order for me to "say" I want the shaft, " I would have to be yelling really loud from LA so I just put in writing. 😂 hope that works!
This is soooo sick. I wish my motor swap went this smoothly.
Can’t wait till part 2!
Great content guys
Top Tier Craftsmanship!
Hey...You should put a Cummins turbo back in that Corvette.
That would be really cool!!!
I want that bump stick. 👨🏻🔧
Owner of a 928 GTS Manual for 20 years, and always fancied a V8 911. Sold my 993 Turbo 4 because it was too dull in 4WD. It had the factory stage 2 kit with 450bhp. Turbo lag was a bit too much and the exhaust note not not vibrant enough. Beautiful to look at though.
Theyve been doing this for decades called "HIllbilly 930s" ,down south they put diiferent Corvette engine in regular 930s,and they run the air inatke through the side window on the drivers side, in 2010 I bought a 9.9 out of 10 shape 1983 944, it came from Canada and looked really different then the American version, somebody had done an LS6 V8 swap ,put on really big Falken RT660 race tires on it and 2001 911 turbo rims ,the five spoke 18 inch rims. beast...but bought a 1984 Porsche 911 Cabriolet 3 years later, and my Saab is so much faster after a Maptun stage 1,
where can I find the next video and see the finished build? Looks great so far!
Porch Wagons need this engine where the back seats are as factory standard
The only thing good about Porche is a great wiring harness, traction control, launch control and weight displacement.
How are you making this car better other than top speed?
What is the weight displacement on the 4 corners now?
You've essentially created a Mustang type setup that's going to go off the road coming out of a (Cars & Coffee) 😮
Great work. A V8 in a 911 has long been my dream. Greetings from Switzerland
As a dyed in the wool Porsche guy for over 60 years. I might just like this build.. Hummm~~~~?.. Think I'll search for a 911 roller and maybe put a LS in it. . I'm keeping my current Porsches all stock. Yep, this could be fun !!
I wouldn't have believed you if it wasn't filmed. Nice work
Literally counting down to the next video! Very cool, always enjoy your videos, mad respect from the UK
Can you image if the oil pressure sensor ever goes bad lol
Nice to see these conversions. I put Ford engine into Mazda RX7. Wish i had workshop full of tools. All i had was a few spanners, hacksaw, stick welder and hand drill. And some 1/8 plate. I did have an adapter plate made by drawing out the rear of engine and gear box on tracing paper and had it flame cut out.
Man, watching the motor build footage was therapeutic for me
Major Fau Pax at the start....
A motor takes energy(electricity) to produce work power.
An engine takes fuel(gasoline) to produce work power.
Motors are in blenders and dishwashers.
Engines are in landscaping equipment and cars and trucks.
" I Want The Shaft !?!?
Please ?

OK, I love the build, though I feel your Morning faces tell a better story. You brothers having NONE of your humor that early in the morning. Lol😅😂
I want the shaft!!
Just got done building a LS3 for my Saturn Sky. Major flashbacks going on, lol.
Dang Guys.. Outstanding build !
I want to shaft!!! I absolutely positively totally freaking want the freaking shaft!!!
Holy SH**!!
I'm kinda jealous! 🤩
Awesome work, Guys!
I want the shaft.
Not because I have an LS, but because I want to hang it on my wall. Longer comment and a sub for the algorithms
Zero heartburn putting a V8 in a Porsche 911.
I have an 85 944 with an Ls in it. Just got it running. Can’t wait to drive it!!
I want the shaft!
Just found you guys and I love your content!
I want the Shaft!!!
I will somehow attach it behind the rear seats (window) in my ls swapped e36, so everyone can see what American Hurs Purs looks like. 😂
I definitely want the shaft!!
