You would use the porsche heater boxes. You could also put in a watercooled porsche engine. I don't know the year - early 2000's maybe ...porsche went to all watercooled engines - not sure when the change is, but all 911's, Boxsters, and now the new sports model - they're all water cooled. Scott

Except how do you handle interior heating going from water to air cooled?
