Guys,

it's a engine built up by a local Australian guy for a well known Porsche racer over here. It is a GT2 spec endurance motor with the endurance case with twin oil squirters and it's got all the good rods, valves and valve gear and running 8.5:1 compression. It is going onto K16's to start but I have a set of K24's that will most likely get fitted up once we bed the engine in. Right now, my brilliant engine guy is building a set of headers for it. The engine uses some 964 components but only where they were the preferred racing part or where they suit our endgame better. The engine should be more torquey by nature of it's 3.8 ltr capacity but it is not more HP I'm looking for.....It's longevity! So this one should be much stronger and more robust than the standard 3.6 we were racing with before. I'll send some more pics when it is about ready to go in the car.
