Below the valve cover there is a set of 3 numbers on the cylinder head. What do these indicate?
 BTW - the water droplets in the background are a new feature. I thought the 996 was the first water cooled rear engine for Porsche, but this little engine has them beat.  It seems the PO left the carbs off the engine. I got it onto the stand today, removed the exhaust manifold and found one side had water. Rotated the engine and had water dump out of an exhaust port. So glad I saved money on this instead of paying a few thousand more for a car that runs and was well taken care of. DaveB |
