You don't think it's a Porsche V8? It's hard to see much, but I just figured it was a 928 engine.

Definitely a Gen III... They're even using the GM beauty covers in flat black.

It says 5.7L V8, that should be the first clue to the Chevy heritage

Other car makes, make a 5.7L V8 engine. Porsche makes a 5.7L V10 I think (in the Carerra GT)

That's almost as rare as the actual GT1 engine...

I think that the 928 engines started as 4.5L 16V with 220 HP or so and were eventually enlarged to 5.4L 32V with 345 HP. That's a BIG engine for Porsche.

Americans lose sight of the fact that we like big engines and nobody else builds them as big (especially V8's) as we do.

You'd think it was a fiero rebody.
Ten people bid, and they only raised the auction $100
