I ran across a listing on EBAY Item #224348635275 on a 1974 Porsche 914 with a 1967 911S 2.0L engine installed etc. The 67 911S engine was a sportier 2.0L engine Porsche that put out reportedly 180 hp, with 144 lb torque. Looking at the overall car it looks pretty rough! Looks like someone has put the oil tank in the front compartment and not real sure whats going on in the engine compartment. If someone has the time could they look at this listing and give me your thoughts. I have asked the seller to clearify what’s going on in the engine compartment and some engine numbers, no reply.

The wheels appear to be flat 6s '72>
The front struts look like Hydropneumatics which are unusual '72 era They are 911S/early930 front calipers '69s - '77 930 Oil tank '72 only MFI '69-'73 I do see an 'eyebrow' on one intake valve cover spark plug hole .....early sandcast or SC pressure cast ? With all of that plumbing on top it would be very hard to see the engine identification or serial number. That MUST be determined. It's almost possible to make out three ribs on the front of a sand cast alloy engine case from below. Maybe not. Early aluminum case and MFI don't usually happen together. Homebrew engine conglameration ? Possible scrounged parts from a '72 E ? What a mystery. That motor mount !!!! That plumbing !!!! For the right price it could very interesting. Sand cast engine or '72 E ? Both are plusses. A lot of junk to remove too. |
