I say that regarding 911's 962's and 956's are whole new ballgame

What size SBF is that, and where do you plan to run the car ?

So, what do you see as inferior about the engine?

Zeke 06-10-2013 04:10 PM
I think he is referring to how compact Porsche makes the engine and the surrounding equipment. When you look at the NASCAR plumbing it's a spaghetti dinner.

Bigger, Heavier, R&R much more difficult

Jim Bremner 06-10-2013 05:11 PM
Yup, A lot more space to the engine but it is a 5.8 liter motor.

What is more difficult? I had issues working on my first VW motor vs. my first SBF.
