Engine Letter Codes -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This should help you decipher what sort of engine you have in your Porsche. The "Code" column shows the first character or two of the engine code, stamped on the case. Data is supplied for bus cases as well as VW 411/412 cases just in case your Porsche 914 has one of those engines in it (since they are easily interchangeable).
