1985 Porsche Carrera with a RS America Motor

Project Nasty - 1985 Porsche Carrera With A 1994 Carrera Engine

This 1985 Porsche Carrera is the creation of BBI Autosport’s co-owner Joey Seely. The engine is a 3.6 L flat-six from a 1994 Carrera RS America. The engine features a 993 GT3 Cup crankshaft, custom Carrillo/BBI rods, CP pistons, ported heads, and GT3 three-stage oil pump. The rest of the drivetrain consists of a 915 gearbox with steel syncros and a Guard limited-slip diff. To increase performance further BBI stripped everything out of the car and installed carbon-Kevlar hood, front and rear bumpers. This gives the car a weight total of 2,200 lbs and a sound level inside the cab of an 11.
