Help / Engine number matching on a 1974 MFI car
 
Can anyone help with engine number matching on a 1974 MFI car. Porsche COA doesn't do it anymore.. ????

If you have the engine number PCNA will confirm it. If you are missing your engine that’s another story.

PCNA is getting a bit fussier on this stuff as they rework this service. I've had them check and confirm original engine number if I call on the phone, but the last time they took notes and had to call me back a day or two later. It seems the phone contacts no longer have direct access to this info.

The other thing is that they may not provide confirmation for RoW cars, such as any '74 MFI car. The replacements for the CoA (PPS & CTC) are now said to only be available for US delivered cars.

try here: Carrera 2.7 MFI: Successor to the 1973 Carrera 2.7 RS Touring (M472)

Not anymore. As of March 1st you need to bring the car to dealer and pay $499.00. According to COA department at Porsche.

The guy who runs that website is an expert on the model. I'd drop him a line. We're in the middle of a longterm 74 MFI restoration too.

Are you missing your engine? I've got a blank case, though it wasn't always blank. Someone scraped it, but it is a real 911/83 from 1974. I was going to build an engine with it, but then bought a car that already has a Supertec 2.8 race engine in it and scrapped the project. I've also got new MFI RS P&Cs. LMK if you have an interest.

Thanks, but according to his site he's no longer monitoring, updating or responding. IDK
