Ken Geisler, 41, lives in Staten Island, NY, with his wife and two children. Ken started with a bone stock 1984 Porsche 911 Carrera. He joined the Porsche Club of America in 1987 and began Drivers Education. The bug bit deep, he soon tired of his 200HP 3.2. Ken traded up for a 3.5 liter Bodymotion built X-IMSA engine. The engine was dynoed at 409HP, normally aspirated, slide valve Kugell Fisher injection. This would not work for Ken, who at the time enjoyed his drives to and from Bridgehampton. We detuned the engine to approximately 300HP. Soon we upgraded his suspension, brakes, roll bar, etc. Ken experienced many problems with the high-strung engine. It was fast but proved unreliable. The broken parts from his various engine/transmission failures are shown at PCA meetings here at Bodymotion to this day. Spectacular stuff. Ken opted to install a 3.6 C4 engine, so a 1993 donor was located. This complete with a light clutch/flywheel 915 gear box with 7:31RP is an awesome combination. Bodymotion lightened up the load by installing carbon fiber rear wing, fenders and hood. This high torque, low weight Carrra is in very capable hands with Ken at the wheel. Ken has been driving Pocono since Bridgehampton closed in 1997. Bodymotion
