Its a piece of cake! We are doing that one now. Would you like full sequential with boost and a 6 speed? Big brakes? Chrome trucker mudflaps? We can make your 928 dreams come true! Here is a link to one that we just finished.

About as hard as a V-10 M5 motor.

To save you the hassle later on, here's a pic of a BMW S70/2 motor, it won't fit 'cause the intakes are too tall.



And an XJ-S V12 won't fit 'cause no one knows what all those extra hoses are for.



And a Toyota V-12,



It'll fit.

Were going to have to machine a custom flywheel since they only came with auto boxes. Other than that, it will fit.....and crap on a v8.

It will be the only German 928 upgrade for a long while.....
