Known for daring designs, Jimmy Oakes installed an 8-cylinder engine from Maserati and Ferrari into the rear of a 1978 Porsche 911. The resulting car was immediately nicknamed the “Porrari” and was shown at the Formula Drift competition in Connecticut.
The donor for the Porsche 911 SC was the naturally aspirated 4.2-liter V8 F136 from the 2007 Maserati Quattroporte. The engine, developed by Ferrari, produced 400 hp at the factory. In addition to Maserati, the unit with the factory index F136 was installed on many Ferrari models.
It was not possible to simply move the engine: the body of the 48-year-old Porsche required a complete renovation. It was disassembled, the roof was replaced with a carbon one from EP9 Autosport, and all the wiring was redone from scratch – the factory one did not fit. The most difficult stage is installing the motor. The team fabricated a custom bracket and also required an adapter from Kennedy Engineered Products and an original clutch and flywheel.

Custom exhaust manifolds were also made for the V8. In addition, the car received individual throttle valves from the BMW M3 S65. The result is improved responsiveness and great sound at 8,000 rpm. Also, space had to be cut out in the engine bay for a radiator, since the original 911 was air-cooled. Significant improvements were also made to the suspension.
Previously, Americans filed a lawsuit against Ram due to “extra” gears in the transmission.
