Kinninger Racing<\/a> built this 1985 Porsche 911 SC in 2019. In the back of the car they swapped a 3.6 L flat-six from a 1995 Porsche 993. The motor features custom-ground camshafts, ported heads, and upgraded valvetrain. It produces 300 hp (220 kW) and 225 lb-ft (305 Nm) of torque. In front of the motor is a 915 five-speed manual transaxle with a limited-slip differential and WEVO shift kit. Kinninger Racing rebuild the suspension using Bilstein shocks and struts, 23\/31 mm torsion bars, Tarett sway bars, and four-piston brakes with drilled rotors. The body received a longhood conversion, fender flares, and fiberglass bumpers. Everything is covered in Tangerine 23-018 paint and accented by Rotoform 17×9-inch and 17×11-inch wheels. <\/p>\n
