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.

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