Right, that would be a "modern" engine no doubt that you could do it however...

Well, it is OHV - if that's what you mean. Heck, I think I have one of those big Holly carbs sitting around too. It's all coming together.

Given that the OP is driving a nearly new Carrera GTS 991 ....his benchmark for modern performance, comfort, and convenience is rather high ....plus the 991 GTS redlines at 7,800 RPM
