Porsche 911 with a Ferrari/Maserati V8

Published in engineswapdepot.com

Jimmy Oakes debuted his Porsche 911 project called “PORRARI” in the ENEOS booth at the 2026 Formula Drift event at Stafford Motor Speedway in Connecticut. The 1978 Porsche 911 SC is now powered by a Ferrari F136 V8 from a 2007 Maserati Quattroporte. The motor breathes through BMW E90/92 M3 S65 throttle bodies using 3d-printed custom adapters from Ding Dong Drift. Exhaust is routed through custom stainless steel headers made by James “Bopper” Moran. In front of the motor is a Kennedy Engineering Products (KEP) bellhousing, clutch, and flywheel connected to a Porsche 996 911 six-speed manual transaxle. The powertrain is supported by a custom tubular cradle. The car rides on custom Stance Suspension coilovers and stops from Porsche Boxster Brembo four-piston brakes front and back. The body features an EP9 Autosport carbon fiber roof and widened metal fenders over RAYS VRX-10 wheels (17×9.5, 17×10.5) wearing R17 Accelera 651 Sport tire (235/40, 255/40). Anthony Mendoza applied the beautiful Porsche Guards Red paint.
