(I know I'm a n00b user here, but not a scammer)

My 1990 944S2 had an engine issue last event on the track.  Looks like a cracked ring, and now low compression in cyl 2, I scoped it and looked messy.  I have had this car for 13 years and I have done darn near every project on it twice.   I think it's time to set it free and find something else to do or work on.  Specs:

Black with black (stipped) interior.   Street legal but more track than street.  No a/c, but heat, wipers, radio still there.

Autopower roll cage, harnesses, Sparco seats

Racers edge suspension mounts in the rear.   All solid billet stuff.

"High strung" control arms up front, solid castor blocks, ground control camber blocks (strut mounts)

Coil over rear shocks and upgraded springs.  I don't  know the spring rates.  It's stiff, but street able. 

Recently (as in one event ago) rebuilt front calipers

Head was refreshed about 5 years ago.

Would make a great winter project if you have a new engine and want to drop it in, or rebuild the one in there.

Car is in Northern VA.  I also have an 18.5' enclosed trailer, so I could drop it off.  Or sell the trailer with it.  

If interested, drop me a line and we can chat.   (I don't have recent photos, it's in the trailer...I could take some if really interested).

I had a number in mind, but I'm a little reluctant to post it as I don't want a debate on that topic in the public forum.   If you're truly interested, please email me and we could discuss it (I missed all the posts until now 'cause the forum doesn't notify you of new posts).    

This is the only place its posted, I'm not 100% committed to selling it, but I am also far less than 100% committed to all the work involved in fixing it.  (I found all the photos from when I had the engine apart last time, in 2015).    Ah, nostalgia.    

It's too capable of a car* to part out, somehow she needs to be back on track.

 

*It was before the engine went.   I was running in the Red group in PCA.

Is the Autopower a bolt-in cage?

So between $500 and $5000 or over $5k?

^^This.   Unless you want to spend more.   :)

It'd make a great LS1 platform or a 968 engine.
