Engine # Help
 

GUY SAYS ITS A 71E BUT # DOESNT MAKE SENSE?
6201001
911/01
911-101-102-2R
IS THIS A 70 E OR A 71?

Looks like a 70E to me.. 71's had a 3R case ( the 901 #) and had engine serial #'s starting with 620, this one being the one thousand and first produced.

(the engine serial was looked up from the Johnson book, engine code from BA and the 3R being from my pesonal experience.)

OK NEXT ISSUE PLASTIC STACKS MFI ON A 70?

Possible but not likley. They're a 72/73 only item.

NO REALLY THEY ARE THERE PLASTIC AS CAN BE . I RECIEVED MOTOR TODAY AND AM CHECKING THROUGH THE #'S

Intersting but stranger things have happened.. I wonder if someone's rebuilt the motor to 2.4 E specs.

WELL PUMP # MATCHES 0408-126-010 70/71 E BUT WHO KNOWS MOTOR SPINS FREE AND UNDER THE COVERS LOOK GOOD. HOW CAN WE TELL IF IT IS 2.4 SPEC REBUILD . THIS WAS FROM A FAILED 914 6 CONVERSION SO I FELT A LITTLE MORE COMFY BUYING IT USED AS WORST CASE I COULD PART IT OUT . BUT ALL IS HERE AND LOOKS GOOD .

WHY ARE YOU SHOUTING?????

Sorry did not realise caps lock on

found something new and interestin casting # on left side 901-101-3r and on right casting #901-101-102-2r? would this mean it has been split or gone through or could it be built that way original ???

is it possible to have two different casting numbers on same case one on each half ? or was this someone with a bad case using two spare halves put together?
