PROJECT GALLERY — 3.6L / 3.8L Builds & Conv

This 1975 911 was backdated to a 1973 RSR style and received our 993 3.6L to 3.8L motor package. The car also had a fully adjustable RSR style suspension installed.  The 915 transmission was also addressed and we installed a lightweight stage 1 flywheel and clutch for improved throttle response and smooth engagement.  A limited slip differential helps keep the power planted on exit.  A 993 turbo brake package was installed to enhance stopping power as well. Enjoy the video!                               

Patrick Motorsports has built this 916 steel roof replica, powered by a fully built 964 DME based 3.8L engine, driven through a 915 gearbox with WEVO tail shift system. The car has a modern A/C system featuring R-134 refrigerant, utilizing a front mounted 993 A/C condenser with fan assist. We have stripped the chassis, seam welded & reinforced all critical areas, and incorporated a tubular cage system front to rear. This 916 Tribute won 1st in Class at PCA Werks Reunion 2015.   See it on YouTube! : http://youtu.be/wZvhkRCO2_k        914/6 Oil Tank Filler Neck Kit (OIL 901 107 640...

This original 914-6 was first delivered to Captain Willis, a paratrooper stationed in Bitburg Germany and later resided in Pordenone Italy.  Both he and the car were transferred to Florida where the car collected dust for many years.  In 2008, the vehicle was sold on eBay and started its transformation into a 914/6 GT.   Like many projects that come to Patrick Motorsports, this 914-6 sat in the midst of restoration for several years.  Oftentimes individuals and even shops underestimate the difficulty, labor and knowledge required for a full restoration.  The body of the vehicle was to receive GT style flared...

  This car is fitted with our front oil cooler system, the Setrab oil cooler (part # PMP 500-15NPT3/4). This is plumbed to the engine using Goodridge fittings and stainless braided hoses. Adding an oil cooler system is a must for operation of the air cooled engines in warmer climates, as the factory engine mounted cooler just does not keep your engine operating in its optimal temperature range, causing premature engine wear and loss for performance. Our systems have been designed to keep your engine operating at its desired operating temperature which extends engine life and improves performance. 914 GT OIL COOLER...

Final assembly is complete, and the car is looking great with its retro look! This little 914 2.0L four came down from Colorado for our "auto spa treatment".

Well there is an answer to that problem, the 3.2L & 3.6L air cooler DME engine conversion from PATRICK MOTORSPORTS. Before the 914 was delivered our customer had decided that a 3.6L 964 DME engine coupled to a late ‘85 915 transaxle would be the drivetrain package. He...

Jeff's 1981 PORSCHE 911 Super Carrera with a 1997 993 3.6L V-Ram engine conversion.                 The 993 V-Ram 3.6L DME engine is originally equipped with secondary air injection system (smog pump), power steering and an oil filter console. The power steering pump driven off the right side camshaft is removed and replaced with our camshaft block off plate. We also remove and plug the air injection ports on the engine. The oil filter console is in place of the original style engine mounted oil cooler found on Porsche 911 cars made before 1990. This...

We fit this 911 race car with a 3.8L 964 based RSR engine, and coupled it to a 1989 G50 transaxle. The gearbox has all the tricks, tall 2.8 ratio first gear mainshaft set with close ratio gears straight thru 5th gear. We set the G50 up with a Quaife torque biasing differential and our billet side cover.

 This 993 Turbo came to us as a Black Horse, and needed a refresh so the famed Mexico Blue was chosen to breathe some life back into the car. The GT2 style is referring to the change from 4 wheel drive to 2 wheel drive.  We have converted the original 993 Turbo all wheel drive gearbox G64/51 to a 993 Turbo 2 wheel drive unit. This keeps the nice tall turbo gears and the strength in tact, it also retains the center oil feed main shaft and pinion shaft that the G64/51 & GT2 have in common.  New interior...

This project started life as a 1995 Porsche 993 Carrera 2 cabriolet. I purchased it as a salvage title interior fire/burn, and parted it out. I always dreamed of a race car, or Crazy C4 Roadster conversion -turbocharged of course, "Pikes Peak" killer. OK, I came to my senses, and here is what we have done. We stripped & sand blasted the tub, seam welded & caged the chassis. We then gave it the Zinc acid etch sealer. We fitted it with the 993 GT2 glass body package, our little twist was the addition of the cab./speedster profile. We have...
