No.. this is a 1975 2.7 motor, not a Carrera motor.

911/43 1975 2.7 911S engine for USA 90x70.4,2687cc I 46, E 40 I 35, E 35 8.5:1 165hp @ 5800rpm 167lb/ft @ 4000 rpm

I have the same engine in my 1975 911. Thought I might of got lucky with a Carrera engine.

I guess if you infer "Carrera" it is more valuable but this then is a mag case.

Thanks for clarifying .

The U.S. Carrera was a top of the line 911. Where in Europe the Carrera was MFI, that motor wasn't importable into the U.S. So the company used the 2.7 S in its place.
So that engine is just a 2.7 S.
