The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network - View Single Post - Porsche 944: Actually there is a substitute

I swapped the T5 over to the L67 and stuffed it into the 944. Welp there's the L67 mocked up. Some minor

clearance issues with the throttle body and EGR valve (they had to come off just to get it to fit). I'm going to have to come to Jesus with myself about using the 944's HVAC unit... there's no way to do that and be able to pass CARB inspection with the L67 supercharger. The only way to rig the L67 in the engine bay is to convert the space originally occupied by the HVAC unit over to a space occupied by the L67's air intake and EGR hardware.

(In the photos I have the L67 throttle body bolted to the SC intake by only 1 of the 3 bolts - so that it is staggered up in the air above the 944 firewall.)

The last photo is where the EGR is supposed to be located. And I have a secondary issue in that the L36 exhaust manifold does not have a port for the EGR connection. Oh well if it was easy then everybody would be sticking L67's into their 944.
