Showed my '73 to a guy today and he said I have a 1.8 not a 2.0 because 2.0 plugs should come in at a 45 degree angle. I am a little confused. I buy 2.0 parts. My serial number is infront of the oil fill hole. Can you guys help me out here?

It looks like you can see the original engine case number peeking from behind that tag attached with the rivets. My guess is that the outfit who rebuilt the motor at sometime affixed their own case/rebuild no. with the rivets. It's not a Porsche factory rebuild, cuz they'll have an "X" at the end of the no. stamped in the case for "Exchange" motor IIRC. PS - It looks like Mark was thinking the same thing while I was typing! ;-) |
