I had a CR (Series 1 1992 build, may have been one of the last 3?) that was brought as a roller in 92, I brought it 2016, 60% complete when I got it. It had a 65-date coded 427S/O with TKO-600 5-speed, and SVO 8.8 Rear end, with harden 'Strange' ? axles. 526HP @ flywheel, a friend that owns 'Old School Garage' in Port Orchard Wa. got the car up & running, (he was the crew chief for Bruce Leven on his 934/935 Porsches in the day) He told me don't worry about frame it will handle what you have, leave the limiting factor your tires (Cheaper to replace) which I did with M/T ST's 275-60-15 rears. Body & Frame on CR are IMPO top notch.
