How a 911 delivers its power - air and oil cooled with precise hand-built parts is enough to differentiate it from the Detroit muscle. I'm not sure any of the Detroit engines of the 60s through to the 80s were hand built.

Plus, the flat six could put out an incredible amount of power for its size. Detroit seemed to need a couple extra liters to reliably match the power of a 3 or 3.2. The 73.5-74 2.7 engines were also good as long as they hadn't thermal reactors on them.
