Hi,
My 1972 914 is VIN 4722904683. The engine number in my 914 is EA023811. Could this be the original engine to the car? … Could it be a VW type 4 engine. How do I tell the difference? Thanks in advance for any help/advice |

Your engine number EA023811 falls within the range of engine numbers for your VIN 4722904683
VIN Range 4722900001 - 4722921580 Engine # Range EA0000001-EA0057000 So, more than likely, the engine is the one that came with the car. Of course, the only sure way to know is to get a COA. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |
