Dear All,
I'm now busy restoring my 914, it's a 1.8 L-jet and the engine is now in the machineshop for line boring, new bearings, new heads, new cilinders/pistons, camshaft etc. Near the engine number the letters "WD" are punched in. What does this mean?  |

 This is from EC039874 "WI" Stamped one side only  This is from EC039329 "W?" Again one side only Based on case/engine production numbers yours is earlier than these two so there must be some "WE" "WF" "WG" ...etc. inbetween could be date code? Good Luck Jim |
