- I went to Porsches On The Plains... But I brought a 911 That was less than favorable.
Porsche purists are nuts, we all know that. So taking @HooviesGarage famous LS swapped 996 Porsche 911 to an all Porsche show was bound to be a blast. Lucky, it was!

#porsche #911 #troll - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Love the disapproving looks from the purists. There is soooo much more to life than knocking someone for improper lug nuts or incorrect headlamp bulbs.
Fun fact, Apollo 911 could walk 90% of those other Porsche’s there. Gapping some by 5-10 car lengths or more. Fight me.
#nailedit
Haha! Oh well. Honestly, apollo should fit in if you take the corvette covers off. Given that Porsche had some v8s in their lineup over the years!
@carwizard great work on Hoovie’s 911 and thanks for building this one that he’s “yet” to blow up! 😂
@@damienf01 It's more the fact that it's an American corvette V8, corvette and porsche crews are rivals :)
Given how often Carwizard goes nuts about keeping cars OEM. These comments are funny. I have never kept a vehicle stock. Apollo 911 shows that with clarity. Note most 914's are not stock given the part unavailability in relation to the 1968 Bosche Electronic fuel injection.
I love that you took it to a porsche event. Upsetting purists is the best part.
They're just pissed that they spent too much for the slow car.
Poooooorists!!!
It's been Ls-ested, oh no Poor Porsche it's r*tarded 🤦🏽♂️
Wait till you drive a c8 into a ferrari event 😅
@@marcuslatrent528🤣 I bet
WC stands for world challenge. It’s a track package from a company called GMG. It’s essentially mostly chassis/ suspension upgrades for track use.
This is definitely a purist Porsche. It’s pure insanity 😂
As a porsche fan and proud owner of a 996 911, i loved that you did this.
Thanks man! Glad you enjoyed it.
The guy with all the official Porsche merchandise on was so so upset.
He was the best. Couldn’t have asked for a better outfit.
Epic
Porsche and Ferrari owners have a stick the size of a red wood shoved up their twats.
A brand has become his identity. Sad, really.
Talk about 1st world problems lmao
They were merely trying to figure out how you could fit that much engine into that little space 😂.
Certainly true for some of them!
They were just jealous that you were the only one not worried about the IMS bearing going bad on the way home
Haha good point!
Some people were probably amazed this was LS swapped. They were wondering the cost and time it took to convert it.
I love how disappointed those purists were.
barely any of them cared, more intrigued
I'm sure Jake was giddy with excitement over the idea of pissing off Porsche people lol. Not backing in was a great move! *visible disgust*... hahaha
Haha yeah, Jake loved it for sure
I’m a Porsche owner and I love the LS swapped cars. I’ll take a dirty driven car over a garage queen any day. I stopped attending PCA events because I got tired of hearing how much someone paid for this and that. It’s all about the fun you have.
That’s what it’s all about!
This is trolling in its highest possible form… the only thing better would have been to have Tyler show up in a “correct” Porsche and poo poo Apollo loudly.
Haha that would’ve been hilarious.
Fun!! In my opinion, that was nowhere near as blasphemous as seeing Model As with a chevy V8 in them.
Ah, yeah I never even thought about how brutal seeing ruined Model A’s must be for you!
and also practical, logical and needed, as the 996 era was notorous for bearing failure between 1996 and 2001, with not even the boxster being spared
which hurts as I like the boxster and thought it was a damn good looking car back then,
also its doubly insulting with the Ford as ford made the very first V8's, and now your putting in a derrivative, like atleast put a 289 in it.
It seemed to be received well
We didn’t get kicked out… Just asked to move lol.
Dog was like “ come on let’s go, no no no….what are you doing, we’re prosche-ah boys.”
You needca big chevy badge on the engine.
i luv 100jake´s casual corvette owner look in a porsche show
Funny to see the purists finally embrace the 996 :D I am not an LS-swap kinda guy, but I am definitely a do-what-you-like guy, so this is funny to me. There were nearly 180.000 996s, so there should be enough out there that not all of them need to be factory stock. My 996 is factory, more or less, but there are some personal touches too. IMO the 996 is the sweet spot of the entire 911 line. Modern enough to be truly competent, old school enough not to hold your hand via electronics while driving. Especially the early 996s with cable throttle are so pure and sweet.
Simply brilliant. And that V8 Porsche deserves more love ( interior and paint refurbish ).
I took my freshly-built 3.6L 914 to a Porsche show unannounced and they tried to throw me out (yes, the 3.6 was out of a 993). I told them to call a tow truck before they let it go. I own a Porsche resto shop and I absolutely hate those guys.
30yrs ago I had a stock 914 and drove into a PCA event. I was treated like I had only half a brain haha.
"Yeah...we're gonna need you to go ahead and park your hooptie somewhere else, m-kay?"
Troll Level: Hoovie. Great video, Elliot! 👊😎
Nice. I have always loved this car and then there was some real eye candy at that show as well.
Without a doubt. There were some amazing cars at the show!
Some of the expressions was priceless. Nice to see a colab with 100Perecent Jake. Had no idea Kansas has so many Porsches. In NC, one of our dealers is about 30 miles away in the next city over.
A fried egg 996 with an American V8.......what's not to love? You should have taken a reliable backup car in case you need to, you know, leave in a hurry, say a Turbo Volvo wagon.....?
Haha I think this LS swapped Porsche is a smidge more reliable than my Volvo 😂
😂 at the "we have successfully infiltrated" remark.😅
Much needed laugh. Thank you.
That was hilarious! At least you didn't get a drink thrown in your face, or have someone vandalize the car. You'll find the snooty purists for everything, but at least nobody angrily confronted you...they probably went home and screamed into their pillow for an hour or two. Love seeing our favorite content creators hanging out together too!
Haha yeah we were fortunate to not have confrontation for sure.
Do some purists actually do that? 😮
If so they have some serious issues.
Apollo 911 is "probably" one of, if not, the most famous Porsche in Kansas... It should be on the top floor...
I'm not the biggest fan of the "LS-Swap everything because V8 motor" thing but honestly, with Apollo 911, it's the engineering that's gone into to make it as legit as possible. Spray the engine lid in body colour, take off the Apollo side trim and it looks like any old 996. Tyler and Wizard tried to make a genuine "Car Porsche never made" creation and that is cool in its own right.
Agreed I'm also so done with LS swap everything. It's turning into a meme of playing Doom on a calculator.
You don’t LS swap everything because V8 lmao. You LS swap things because it’s CHEAP power, parts abundance, a lot of shit you can just go to a parts store and get, not to mention engine availability is ABSURDLY high.
Go park that thing next to the Boxsters...That was funny! It tells you what the Porsche people think about the Boxsters. Even the 914 got better attention than the Boxsters
Jakes mustache looks both extremely nerdy and extremely creepy/serial killery at the same time
Dalhmer
I like anything LS swapped.
Great video, thanks for sharing 👍.
*sips beer disapprovingly* was my favorite
Truly hysterical, especially that Porsche-clad last guy....
He was the best!
His Porsche slacks must have been at the dry cleaners that day.
Modifying cars is what the entire car hobby is all about!
Im loveing it 😂😂😂 this unbelievable great video love from Australia the looks priceless
Hello Mr Motary Notary, this looks like it was a fun event, especially seeing the reaction people had when they were checking out Apollo 911's engine bay!!! Great stuff!! Thanks for sharing your latest adventure!!! 👍👍🙂
Well thanks for watching and commenting Christopher!
Dude this video had me rolling with the peoples reactions to that thing especially when Mr Porsche was looking it over super hard
This is a brilliant idea, I love this so much, some of these people are so stuck up its insane.
Big Facts
Too funny!!! Great to see Eurination Bob….😂😂
Great to see a new upload!
That GT4 RS spec is beyond amazing. Holy moly it looks good!
It’s outstanding in person!
Ahhh this was awesome Elliott, great to see Bob get so excited 😆
And nice to see someone driving Apollo 911 it needs it 😆
The guy at the very end in the orange shirt looking back over his shoulder as you drive out was the best reaction of disgust LOL. @14:43
I had a 986 with 997 GT3 front end and was a member of Porsche Club GB. The leader pointedly lowered his camera every time my car drove past and shot every other car. I don't think he approved 😆
WC stands for World Challenge, a North American racing sprint series. World Challenge has different autos competing from Porsche to Audi, to Mercedes. World Challenge cars although developed on the race track, have also been refined for road use.
I googled it 😬
Ah, how about that!
Funny, the P hat, P shirt, probably P socks and P underwear with a P cars only parking sign at home 😂😂😂😂😂
The one first dude taking pictures looked like B is for Build
Great to see a new video and with guest star, 100 Percent Jake. Great video.
Love it! Good Stuff EA!
That was an enjoyable video. It's a nice format that you may want to explore more often.
You two little scamps, Brilliant idea you two , next time Jake's Miata to an MG show - another community with no chill - excellent video guys!
Haha, yeah British car guys are pretty hardcore too!
Fun video! Of course WC means water closet. :)
Back in the 1970's, Porsche Club of America (PCA) events specified the cars needed to have bodies and engines made by Porsche, so you could place a Porsche flat-6 in a 914, or put a 928's V8 in a 911, but they didn't want a Chevy powered 928, or a VW powered 356.
Ha that doesn’t surprise me, but it is great info!
Great video with two of my favorite CZcamsrs. It's always more fun to stick out than to blend in!
Heck yeah! 😎
I can't believe there are that many nice Porsches in the area. Lots of great cars!
how the hell can you guys tell a disapproving look? I saw people taking pictures. That car is just as interesting.
Great fun😊
Awesome video concept 🤣😂.
I’m not getting the disapproval feeling…more like the “How the hell is that possible look” 😂. Or the “I also wanted to do that but thought it was impossible” look.
Porsche was involved in Rally and Dakar for a while. Loved their lifted 911s. I bet they all secretly liked it, hell 250k miles on the chassis is impressive.
They are all thinking in their heads as they stare deeper and deeper..."damn, you could fit a v8 in it, let's look deeper so I can try it on mine."
I love this Porsche!!!
Great video! Remember when Hoovie pushed his Chevy-powered Jaguar into the British car show? 😂
I'm not a huge LS swap guy but the fact is custom is freedom and we live in the land of the free and that is awesome. It's obviously a blast to drive.
For now
You had to laugh at the "Disapproval Guy".
Excellent 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I’m liking those B sides of hoovie’s garage as long as they are original like this 👍
Haha thanks! That means a lot.
WHAT A FUN VIDEO LOL....Thanks Elliot & 💯% Jake 👍
💯% Old Flying Shoe🇺🇸
Never put pineapple on your schnitzel 😆. 👏 Amazing build!!
I thought you were also gonna say shoutout Hannah at Planet hair, link in the description box below lol
Fun video!!
They should have put a big sign on it saying “How to make a Porsche reliable”.
Even the Porsche labrador "Pooche" was trying to get away from it.
I'm a Porsche person and I approve this swap. 😅 You're fired from future Porsche events for failing to look at a single 944.
Lol it was koo to see someone get creative. I have a 996 but i also love my chevy brothers especially them old schools. 😅
I have a couple of Porsches and would love that thing.
that offroad cayenne was pretty cool, especially the tag
I helped push Apollo up on the trailer the day Tyler broke it on the road course at Heartland Park, so I am a self-proclaimed part of this car's history now. I want it if you ever sell it.
WC Turbo S is a 991 that was tuned by GMG Racing to be an ultimate 991. They are some of the greatest feat of engineering ever put on the road.
As an engineer who loves cars of all stripes, I can't imagine having so much investment in what someone else chooses to drive, let alone what modifications they make to their car. Let people enjoy themselves.
Best Porsche there IMO. The only guaranteed way to make any car better is to put an LS in it.
WC just means water cooled, I love that you took Apollo to the car show 😂
No no, it's water closet :)
World Champion? 🤼
WC = German (for Water Flush Toilet...)
Would of been nice if you guys interviewed some of those ppl looking at the 911 and asked them their opinion of the car and the engine swap. Anyways, great video and nice to see you and Jake.
I have a heavily modified 996 Turbo and Porsche Purists hate it, I experienced the same thing going to a few Porsche events and stopped going, now I just enjoy my car and don't show it off.
Purists? Seriously, I gotta call bullshit. One of our most involved and dedicated Porsche Club members runs an LS swapped 996 at our track days. Not only that, we include Mustangs, Corvettes, Tesla's, Subaru's, Lotus etc... as gear heads we welcome any and all guests that come out to work on driving a roadcourse.
That was my blue Boxster on the other side of hoovies 911. I was curious about the engine weight.
Thank You Thank You Thank You . This is the one car that needed attention from Hoovies fleet !!!!!!!!
It was good to get it out again!
There are enough porches on the road for no-one to care if are some are modified. Who can't like a swap to a v8?
I think it’s a good idea, the Porsche engines with IMS and bore scoring issues should have been recalled and replaced by the manufacturer. This is a win win.
You don’t have to be a purist to be disappointed by this. I’m not a fan but hey, if it is lighter than the OEM block, I guess it’s not the end of the world.
I think that car is great, yes it will piss off every purist, but that means Hoovie can enjoy the car and not worry about mileage, keeping it original and so on, would be awesome to have that purple on the 914, I always thought the 914 was kinda cool in a weird way
Good video👍🏻😂😂
Personally, I love Apollo 911. The snobs can get over it. Lol
Closed arms, closed mind.
LOL
Should have written “250k Original Miles!!” on the windshield, but made the “k” really tiny so you only see it up close.
Great Seeing EuroAsianBob there as well.
I like it. No Bore Scoring.
If they kick a Porsche out of a Porsche show because of V8 noises, then they have never heard a 928 before.....
Great video!
True, and thanks!
I think the Cayenne and maybe the Panamera also had V8 options? But a Porsche V8 doesn’t sound like an LS.
@@stephen3164 UHMMM I highly beg to differ! When I had my '85 928S2 with a Borla dual exhaust, all the time I had people asking if I had done a Chevy transplant...
A crossplane V8 can only sound one way. So YES, the M28 V8 in a 928 sounds EXACTLY like an LS!
@@Flies2FLL - hmm, well… I guess a 928 could be made to sound like an LS? I’ve owned a few cars with the Chevy 350, and some 5.3l cars, and a bunch of BOP 350’s that didn’t have quite the same sound as their Chevy counterpart, and definitely sounded different than a modern LS. Have driven my fair share of C5’s and C6’s. I guess that LS sound is programmed in my head.
I’m also a Mustang guy, currently have an ‘06 with the 4.6l but have driven dozens of V8 Stangs over the years. They sound different to the LS to my ears. And the Dodge Hemi’s have a different sound as well. Little more growly whereas the LS sounds smooth - even if you rumble it through Flowmaster 40’s, it still has this smooth undertone. Probably the cam design.
The 928’s I heard sounded more high pitched. At WOT they had a more unique tone. But again, maybe with the right mufflers, it could mimic an LS. The ones I’ve seen didn’t. (My BMW 540i with the full Dinan pkg had a unique tone - smooth and deep. Pulsating but no rumble at idle. Miss that car, but not the endless repair bills every time I went to drive it!)
@@stephen3164 Dude, OK? Did you read what I posted? An even firing/crossplane V8 can only sound ONE WAY.
Now, if you take an LS and put a 928's stock exhaust on it, what do you think it will sound like? And the converse: Put a C6 LS7 exhaust on a 928 engine; What do you think it will sound like?
It is the EXHAUST that determines what the engine sounds like, not the engine itself!
The 4.6 Ford uses a very good intake that adds some what I call "roarty" sound to the engine, and Ford mounts a stock exhaust that I don't care for frankly, an LS car sounds better. Many 928 owners like me mount Borla exhausts with X pipes added and '85 and later stock 32 valve exhaust headers; The headers and X pipe are good for almost 30 hp on a chassis dyno versus the silent Porsche exhaust, which probably weighs over 100 pounds! WHAT?
An X pipe added like this probably accounts for the higher pitched sound that 928's have. But they shriek like NASCAR race cars with this setup above 6000 rpm!
