Default engine, stage left
My wee beastie..with output roughly equivalent to my '00 Grand Cherokee (but it doesn't feel like it). Happily enjoying the ease with which 4.7L overpowers frozen Kumhos.....Better pic/more to follow from home later on...

Mine got the 'full monte' treatment. At 100k miles and 19 years old, had to happen.

Great looking engine bay!!
Shane,
Klaus is running great. No supercharger issues. Haven't broken anything. I've had some typical 928 problems - brake lights quit working (brake light switch), cooling fans took a holiday (control module).

Thanks for the compliment.

Abby,

I like the yellow with red. Very nice combo, very clean.

Malibu, we said 'under the hood'! Holy crap .
