i find it amusing and a little sad that some people would use the word "butcher" when describing an automotive modification. glad to see were all keeping level heads.

personally i wouldn't do a v8 mod in a 911 (but WOULD in a 914, 924, 944 or 928) because of the already strong rear weight bias. i can speak firsthand of the tricky and frankly negative handling aspects of the 911 as i drove mine at sears point this past sunday. i can imagine it would only be stronger in a 930 or 911 v8 conversion.

a 911 isn't going to out-handle most performance cars anyways, but you'll be smoking virtually any car in straight line acceleration.
