Well, my original 914-6 Engen case for #41 the 30 car off assembly line was found by Glenn Stazak who messaged me that Henry at Supertec Performance had my case. I have been looking for this case since 2007—Henry is Beed blasting it and delivering it to me. It was set up for a 2.5 SS same as the 69 S Eng. that was in the car when I bought it.
My buddy Alan S. says I found the golden ticket! I will not put it in my car but use it as a table in office just in case, on the case.

I guess you can never give up on looking.

Henry is selling all his parts on BAT, just a tip:

A Collection of Porsche 911 Parts.
This collection of Porsche engines, gearboxes, and parts was assembled over the past 38 years by the seller, Henry Schmidt of Supertec Performance in Fallbrook, California. The collection comprises thousands of components for air-cooled Porsche 911 vehicles manufactured from the 1960s through the 1990s and includes approximately 50 engine cases as well as cylinder heads, camshafts, crankshafts, and connecting rods. Also included are a number of gearboxes, mechanical fuel injection parts, brake and suspension components, spare bodywork, and exterior trim pieces. This collection of Porsche parts is offered in Fallbrook, California.

Congratulations Bob! I am very happy you found the original case for your 6. I still have hope that mine might emerge from an old shop one day. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

He said some of that inventory was from Motor Mistier that went bankrupt and he bought some of the assets I think 2011, and different smaller guys that closed out there stashes of parts

That's really pretty cool! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Bet you're stoked!

When you actually have it in your shop will be the best time!

You'll treat it better than any other engine part you own.

You'll stare at it with a tiny bit of dementia in your gaze...
