FWIW an aluminum small block chevy V8 racing engine weighs about 50# less than a m96 motor and could be made to fit similar confines. So, I don't think it's impossible to put a V8 or flat 8 in a rear engined 911 configuration. Where there's a will there's a way!



it wont happen for the same reason that the cayman isn't faster than the 911. The 911 is an icon. it has a certain persona that porsche wouldn't dream of tarnishing. The flat 6 is part of that persona
