However, 911 GT3 model differs from 962 models due to its two cylinder heads along with each covering 3 cylinders unlike six individual cylinder heads in 962 model cars.

Porsche had designed the basic casting for crankcase in GT3 as similar to an air cooled engine and casting number of 964 underneath the crankcase. The same style was adopted by the company till the production of 2004 GT3 model cars. However, the casting of crankcase was modified in mid 2004 to a 996 casting crankcase.

In this new designed version, the external air cooled remnants were eliminated without changing its internal design. Moreover, Porsche 911 GT3 was offered with manual gearbox with an air cooled 911 heritages. The gearbox was equipped with interchangeable gear ratios to make it a pure racing car.
