So, do you do X51 Engine swaps in Caymans?  It sounds like you have a shop (?)

PorscheDoc's photo gallery 		Yup, same project.  Just buttoning up some final details on the car right now.  The crate motor we got from porsche had one camshaft 1 tooth out of time, which Porsche said they had never seen before, though the PCA tech advisor for the 997/Caymans says he has seen it before.  So now it is correctly timed, and ready to rock and roll.

How much would you charge to swap the X51 into a 2000 Boxster S?   I know this conversion is done by Ruf, so I know its possible.  =]
