So, I have lived about a quarter mile away from a 74 911T for 5 years and never knew it. It has a 2.7 in it and CIS. The car is a lost cause, but complete with engine trans. It has sat for a few years outside but the engine still turns over. Really all I'm after is the engine in it if it is a good buy. It does have a nice set of Fuchs on it...
What are all of your thoughts of its worth? I will most likely buy the whole car and sell everything minus the engine. |

there aren't any aluminum (original) 2.4 motors..
they quit doing aluminum blocks in 1968 so 69-77 are all magnesium there are 2 different ways to build a 2.5 one is a short stroke motor, the other a big bore on a 2.4(long stroke) rebuilding any motor is pricey so rebuilding the 2.7 is not going to be cheap. The Mag cased motors probably cost the most to rebuild due to the machine work. and is one of the reasons reasons that people go 3.0 or bigger |

All else is correct, stick with aluminum engine cases. You'll be far a happier camper. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
