I am looking at a 2.0 on eBay, it is supposedly out of a '75. The # stamped on the block is GC003297, all the other 2.0 engines I've seen start with GA. Any help to decipher this is appreciated.
Thanks, John |

In front of the oil filler tower, on the 2.0 914 engines. See the arrow near the center of the pic below:
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/www.pelicanparts.com-121-1529012209.1.JPG) Some VW applications also have engine serial numbers there. The other 914 engines, and many VW ones, have codes elsewhere. Primarily on top of the right half of the case (upper-left of the photo). I bet the "80 HP" that others have noted for the GC motors is measured SAE Net. DIN uses a different set of test conditions, and typically reads higher than SAE Net. SAE Gross is an older measurement that reads even higher for the same engine than DIN does. --DD |
