Default 928 Featured in Engine Build Magazine

Hope this isn't a re-post. The December, 2011 Engine Builder magazine has a great article by Carl Fausett on "Designing and Building a World-Record Beating Porsche V8".

Thanks, guys! I appreciate it.

BTW: that photo taken in 2010 at the time we were featuring our 32v intake manifold study and nylon intake runner development. Our new cam sprockets did not exist at the time that photo was taken.

Here is the thread about that intake manifold study, in case you missed it:

I picked up a small engine I had rebuilt this week and my engine guy gave me the mag. He knew I liked Porsche's. He also reworked a valve for the 928 last year so he enjoyed reading it. Great article.
