Putting a V8 in a Porsche is like putting a V8 in a Jag. And there might be more justification for the Jag since it costs as much or more to rebuild one of those I-6s as it does a P-motor. But if you rode in a V8 conversion Jag, you might feel like there was something not quite right with absence of the original purring kitten.

The proper place for a V8 is in front of you in a Corvette. I just can't fathom that rumbling behind in a 911 displacing the unique sound of the F-6. And I really get upset over the butchering of the 914's. Say what you will, but that is a member of the Porsche family and deserves an original aircooled motor, 4 or 6. Mine will get the six eventually.
