You are fully correct..

I know that there will be no V8 in the next GT3..but you dont have to believe me..

You dont have to be very smart to know this, when the 991 was launched Mr Achleitner was asked whether there could/would be a V8 possible in a 991..the answer was simply: NO!

I also doubt that the V8 Porsche has from its spyder would fit into the 991 engine bay - which is similar to the 997 engine bay (same engine basically).

Only solution would be to make a "RUF" copy of its V8..but Porsche cant do that ..

W16?

Volkswagen wants GT3 to have turbo charged V12 and 4 wheel drive, transmission from Audi.

Calm down guys, I am currently at the Porsche Engine Development facility and have managed to secure some footage of the ACTUAL next GT3 engine. It sounds MEAN

OH HELL YEAH, it's a V8! Think about it, with the 3.6 still being a 6 cyl the next move from Porsche HAS to be a V8. Look at the 918, same size but a V8. Look into the future!
