The company has also added electronic ignition and fuel injection to the air-cooled 911 engine

KCPerformance offers the PDK conversion for air-cooled Porsche 911s, allowing owners to enjoy a modern dual-clutch transmission in their classic cars. It's a significant investment, costing around €50,000 depending on the configuration. The company believes its PDK swaps will encourage classic 911 owners to drive their cars more often.

Speaking with Motor1, KCPerformance co-owner Kazimir von Hooijdonk said his firm has to mill an aluminum adapter plate to pair the engine with the transmission. It also installs a new flywheel with a crankshaft position sensor and an electronically controlled throttle body. The changes don’t stop there. The shop has tweaked the engine to use an electronic ignition and fuel injection. It also runs an aftermarket ECU to ensure the engine and transmission work seamlessly.
