Looking at the cam cover, it is a Porsche engine. But.... the left head is missing the exhaust cam.

Hacker-Pshorr is correct. Check out www.aardemasohc.net for more info.

It turns out the bore centers on a 928 are only .030 different than a BBC. I saw this in a 32 highboy and it sounded very odd. good, but odd.

Exhaust cam is there. It's driven by an internal chain from the intake cam. The exposed end drives the left side distributor.

I looked at the few pictures on the web site and saw an aircleaner on each manifold section connected directly to a TB. Is this some kind of dual MAF/TB setup, how does it meter air?
