Personally I love the idea but I’m not in the market. And it’s a vert but I guess I could live with that. ---

It would be a great LS1 swap. Kind of a Frankenstein, which is cool. ---

I’d keep it electric. I don’t know what the output would be but I’m sure it’s enough. And there is the added benefit of people thinking you own a car that’s worth more than it is 🙂 ---

My uninformed sense of Porsche value right now is that if looks old it’s worth $100k. ---

Lead acid? No thanks. Although I guess it’s a lot safer than DYI people doing their own lithium ion setups. ---

> [@RedGoober4Life](#): > > Lead acid? No thanks. Although I guess it’s a lot safer than DYI people doing their own lithium ion setups. that is not very much capacity on this thing if that is all the batteries it has. This whole car is neat but it going to be a impossibly tough sale especially with the rate of progress in electric drive stuff. I would bet that does not have as much power as most people think. large DC motors are absolutely massive. google 100hp dc motor. High RPM versions I know very little about so possibly that is a game changer. On the plus side you will not have to worry about your drivetrain developing oil leaks and having otherwise stupid old car problems. Put it on a 5 amp trickle charge and you are done.
