I need some education engine that is, for my 914-6 Options

[freezing14]

Ok i have the engine apart,, the oil was white,, not a good sign but all the parts are moving freely once the cylinders are off,, will do bottom end anyway,, here is where i need education,, i am looking to keep the cost down,, so i am looking for a set of used piston and cylinder, my pistons are ok but will buy whatever makes sense,,

as i shop around for old 911 engine gear, i have seen that they have E/ S / T version,, what is the difference??, is it just the cam, what was the -6 original came with
????, i have seen piston set for sale but they the valve pocket seems deeper,, is it just my eyes or what

Run out and grab yourself Bruce Anderson's book before you go much further on this project. It shows and tells all.

If that's a mag case and it's had water and oil in it for that long, my guess is it's toast. I had one from a 2.4T I bought for the injection. The mag. 'rotted' where the water and oil sat by the drain. Rusty and pitted is not good. You're luckey they even moved. Water+Cast-Iron+Aluminum = Disaster. I had to use a sledge hammer to get my case apart.

You can use the 2.2E P&C's but you'll have to have your heads machined for the larger bore and gasket. They should work fine with carbs.
