You really need to expand your mind past GM v8 shit…the stock engine and drivetrain are designed with weight and balance in mind, not balls out power. A perfect 50/50 weight ratio can easily be thrown off by a big pushrod V8 and cause the car to handle worse, all for an extra what? 80hp? This is a porsche not a 240. Keep that in mind.
