If you don’t mind in wasting a couple minutes of your life, maybe you can identify the engine this part will fit?

Bolted 968 heads on a 928 block about 15 years ago. Didn't want to have to fabricate an intake or water bridge.... the variocam makes so much low end torque I always thought it would be a good fit for a almost stock 5 liter. It was actually too much torque for my 6.5 liter.

‘This engine will have very radical cams, with the radiused GT3 lifters from the 997 model range, it will also use oval 55 mm AT Power ITB throttle bodies which fit the port shape very well. The engine will have a lot of torque just due to its sheer size. I’d like it to be in the 7.3 to 7.5 litre range. The oil ring would need a support rail for that size. The rods are only 6” long for this engine. I still need to do the cam mod for the front of the head. It’s another big job....
