Porsche 911 Engine Problem

1969 Porsche 911

I installed a 1641 VW engine in this 911 Porsche. The engine drove perfect in my VW bug. But for some reason once I installed this 1641 VW engine in my Porsche the spark plugs keeps filing out. I was told from a friend that it might be the 5 speed Porsche transmission thats causes this issue, but I'm not certain. Please give me your input on this matter and can something be done to solve this problem

Do you mean the plugs are fouling? Try running a hotter heat range plug.
