Hoping for some engine & VIN matching: The car is a 1973 911T Targa. It has a build date of 2/73 w/ injection. The VIN (chassis#) is 9113111400 and the engine is 901106101 5R

Any info would be helpful

901106101 5R is the casting number. Engine serial is on the right near the bottom pulley.

OK. Just got back to looking...Chassis(VIN)# 9113111400 seems to be correct for a73 911T Targa. Engine # is 6133909. How do I find out if it is the original engine with the car?

Porsche 911 Performance Handbook - Bruce Anderson - Google Books

Scroll down to page 44. You will see a picture where the engine serial number is (the one you found) and to thr right side and behand it, you will find the engine type. This will tell you what you have.

Also, I suggest contacting the PCA ( Porsche Club of America - Home) and request a Certificate of Authensity (COA) It costs $ 150, but you will have your car's build date, options, engine and trans serial numbers. Nice to have to. Both of my cars have the COA.

The only way to find our for certain if that particular engine was installed in your car at the factory is with a COA, as mentioned. Just a word of warning, COA's vary widely in their accuracy--just do a quick search here to see--so you may wish to seriously consider if you want to spend the money just to verify if the engine is the factory engine, as it does match the number that should be there. It's your call.

Thanks for input. It would appear that there is a 50/50 chance of the COA being accurate. I am sure that the motor I have is the one the car left the factory with given that it is a CIS motor in CIS car and that the previous owner has had the car since 1984 (the past 15-20 yrs off the road and garaged), he purchased it from Brumos Atlanta where it was traded in for a new car at the time, and the only thing that doesn't seem to be original is the red respray done before 1984. The motor had been removed so I was a bit suspicious until I confirmed the engine #.

911 engine number help
 

Hi new to forum, hoping someone can help i bought a 911 and im trying to figure out what engine is in it. Engine# is 6551714 any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

natesway, I'm new here also. Not sure if you've found any info on your engine yet but here's what I found on your engine number: 911.44 - 6 - 2,7 - 118 - 75 - 911S CARRERA (CAL)

In summary:
911.44 (not sure what this means), 6 (cyl), 2.7 (litre), 118 (hp), 75 (year), 911S CARRERA (CAL).

A bit late but thank you. Can you tell me how you identified that it was Japan/ROW?

(I knew it was, just curious)

Hi,

Tried looking my engine code up, but still confused as to what I have exactly.

Engine codes are:

*637233*
930/25

Thank you in advance with any information that can be provided.

*637233* 930/25 does not make much sense.
The serial # is short one digit; for 930/25 I have 64H00001, 64J00001, 64K00001

That's what I thought. What makes it even more confusing is the CA certification sticker in the door jam states its a 1986 3.2L Carrera.

Anyone want to take a crack at this one I found in my loft?

930/76. 6772901

1977 935 3.0 litre?

Looks like we have a winner!
I just looked it up too... I was not sure when I dug it out but according to Bruce Anderson's book the 930/76 ( 3.0 twin turbo) replaced the 930/72 in the 13 built customer cars in 1977

Great thread you've got here folks. I've got a '69 911T #119 1000026. It is currently engineless so my first question is what would be the correct engine type code? And secondly, how significant is such a early T coupe?
Thanks in advance,

Still hoping for some info on my post above.
Thanks

Hey Greg,
The best reference for your inquiry would be "The little red book" but considering I don't have one and they're scarce as hens teeth, I will give you what I can find in my other books...
Does it have or did it come with a Sportomatic transmission?
Have you ordered a COA from PCNA?

1969 911T, 1991cc/2.0l. Weber 40IDT P, 8.6:1cr, 110hp / 157tq, bore 80/stroke 66.

ROW Type 901/03 w/engine serial #s 619 0001 - 619 xxxx? W/manual trans
ROW Sportomatic type 901/13 w/engine serial #s 619 3001 - 619 xxxx?
USA. 901/16, w/engine serial #s 6193297 - 619 xxxx? Manual Trans
USA Sportomatic Type 901/19 w/engine serial #s 619 7292 - 619 xxxx?

Hope this sheds a little more light on your search for details. Hopefully one of the Pelicans with the little red book will chime in as those books usually have the engine serial #s that match VIN #s as that's a more definitive reference!
Good luck
Jason

For someone that does not have the Red Book you are pretty close...

According to the 3rd edition, difference in Red:

911T Targa, 119100001- 119111282 (282 produced)

ROW Type 901/03 w/engine serial #s 6190001 - 6192455
ROW Sportomatic type 901/13 w/engine serial #s 6193001 - 6192455
USA. 901/16, w/engine serial #s 6195001 - 6197292
USA Sportomatic Type 901/19 w/engine serial #s 6198001 - 6198184

You got one too many number (119 1000026), probably an extra 0

@ 911Freak -
No on the Sporto.
@ JJ 911SC - "For someone [apparently] with[out] a red book", you're pretty close. Correct that I added one too many zeros. The correct number is 119100026. But this car is a coupe - hence the 11910xxxx. A Targa would have been a 11911xxxx. No offense intended - just pointing out that we all make typos.
The subject of this car has been changed to a new thread titled 911t # 00026. Please do chime in with any additional info you may have.
Thanks,
