that's alot of money for a motor.

I guess you really have to know the market to judge the price. Maybe there a steal at $100k

Anyone have a link or info about the guts of these motors?

Porsche 356 Carrera the four-cam production cars, by Cole ScroghamI bought this book a while back.

It has lots of info about the evolution of the four cam engines as well as the differences between all of the types produced.

I think they used it to roast hot dogs at the factory.

It is actually out of Road & Track mag in about 1961. Found a copy at an old book store.

Yep, about 50K for a rebuild and 160hp...makes a big T4 or a Jakester engine sound like pretty good deal.

It is not often that these motors are available at any price. Years ago people used to trade parts, not sell them. You had to have something to trade. Not many people had the skills to even service them.

Want to hear what they sound like?
