QUOTE(JOHNMAN @ May 7 2006, 10:27 PM)  That pic is of a non-intercooled 930 engine. It probably is a 3.0. My 1983 has the intercooler, so it is earlier than that. Does it run, or is it blown up? I know its a 76 model 3.0L engine. Its the original engine from a 76 slope nosed taildragger huge rear flares. |

The early 3.0L case is a good thing to have......real gud. You can put a 66mm crank in there if that rings your bell.

I know this isnt a race motor, but as a rule of thumb I would never turn down a killer deal on a factory race motor simply for the fact that you can tear it apart and document everything just to learn for yourself.

like others said, that's not a 935 motor, it's an early 930
the second car Aaron posted ain't no 934, it's an RSR turbo this is a 934 (IMG:http://www.blackhawkcollection.com/image/cars/1976%20porsche%20934%20f.jpg) From what I heard, those 3.0 turbo's are real nervous f-ers... no go off boost, and then when the boost kicks in (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) Personally, I wouldn't put it in my 914 but still... $2500 is not a bad deal, so if you can spare it, grab it (you can always sell it for more (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)) |

QUOTE(Aaron Cox @ May 7 2006, 04:47 PM) 934 motor? or 935? 935 were bi turbo and flat fan... single turbo 934 IIRC.... Single or twin turbo? I think it depended on the series the cars raced in. If I recall correctly, in the US most people ran 935's in IMSA. IMSA wanted to protect its All American GT class (tube frame V-8 cars like the Dekon Monzas) so it allowed the 935 only with single turbos. It didn't make much difference though as IMSA became a 935 series for several years until the GTP formula took over. |

It has what I think is a factory roll cage, and the fender extensions front and rear. Plus the 15 inch steamroller rims for the rear. It has some real weird mods on it too. |

Just buy it and talk to marty about what to do with it. It's only 2500, like others said, it's worth more than that in parts. Good luck.
