You can view our previous articles <a href=\"https:\/\/engineswapdepot.com\/?p=1164\">here<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/engineswapdepot.com\/?p=941\">here<\/a>. Grant was working on it in Hong Kong but his job got in the way and after a two-year break they shipped the car to Schwartz Performance to complete the project. There the Porsche body, custom chassis, Audi S5 V8 drivetrain, Porsche 997 brakes and suspension will come together.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/engineswapdepot.com\/?attachment_id=5330\"
