Hello everyone! New Member here.
I just acquired a 914 engine that was disassembled 4747. I purchased it and was told it was a 1970 2.2T motor and wanted to build it as a project back to original specs that is still my plan unless someone needs it. I would also be interested in some opinions. Since when I purchased it and it was represented as a 1970 911 2.2T motor and it is a 914-6 motor did I get the better end of the deal? which motor is more valuable? |

Actually more specifically around #1368...if numbers are assigned sequentially. My car is #1670 / Engine #5049
Tony PS: I've done a fair amount of research and the added value for a matching number package in a Porsche isn't that substantial - not like the old "muscle cars" of old. As said previously, their isn't allot of value either way. The "bonus" of having matching numbers ranges from 5 to 10 percent. Their is the value to the right person and then only maybe... you'd be looking for a car with a vin around 914043 1344 |
