Yeah, back to looking at 2.2 and 2.4 engines while day dreaming. Not sure it is relational...
Just curious If there are any significant handling/weight advantages. I don’t think so, so does it come down to aesthetics of how the engine spin and sound? I will duck and cover now... |

I think the hot rod T4 engines def have an advantage with an engine weight of only ( from the internet) = 265 lbs. Some of those later 964/ 993 engines are getting up there. For comparison; early LT-1 series Chev sb v8 = 619, and Cayenne 4.7L v8 = 574 lbs.
