What is the disadvantage of a non-interference engine? Joe, the "disadvantage" of a non-interference engine is that when the timing belt shreds, you would, in theory, not have pistons hitting all the valves. Maybe one or two since they would be open, but a much less expensive repair much to the chagrin of Porsche, Porshce parts suppliers and shops. Actually, most non-interference engines have lower compression ratios = less horsepower. |
