...wow, the whole quarter panel is filled with hidden muffler. That would save some weight out back, getting rid of all that.

Thanks -

It's okay, 911s need some weight over the rear axle.

Here is some work that a shop in Ontario, StanceFactory in the GTA does.

This is an E30 S54 swap. I'd give a lot to get one of these for mine.

^ wow...never heard of them before.

"Ryan Falconer Racing Engines has been in business since 1966, building, designing and developing race-winning engines. A developer, R&D lab, and design house all rolled into one is at the core of our business. We love to create, and it just so happens we love to mix art and horsepower in heavy doses."

"We won the Indianapolis 500 in 1966, our Indy Ford powering Graham Hill to victory. We dominated offshore powerboat racing as the first builder to use Bosch mechanical fuel injection in the early 1970s, so much so, we were legislated out. We built the engines that dominated in Formula 5000, driven by the likes of Al Unser and Mario Andretti and we won a Can-Am champoinship in the 1980s that was hard-fought and well earned."


"The Falconer V12 is, and always has been based on a Small-Block Chevy."

My day just got a lot better.

Not sure if anyone noticed this combo.



The Falconer V12 is a pretty cool engine. It even sounds like a 1/2 scale Rolls Royce Merlin.
