Slater,
According to my Redbook you are mostly correct, 6569099 (type 911/89) would be a US (non CA) 2.7 from a 911S with a sportmatic tranny. But it looks like that would be for the '76 year model. Actually, it says this was the engine installed on cars produced from august 1975 to july 1976, so I'm assuming that would be a'76 model.

Thanks! Must have been a transplant engine, since it wasn't in a sportmatic car. Thanks a lot -kris
