Hi,
I have been looking in every books but can't find this engine number anywhere.
From the picture, it looks like a normal 2.7.
Could you help ID this engine please?
Thanks

Thanks Shane, the number isn't in the red book.

Yeah there are a few ommissions/errors in red book.

the engine looks like it's in a black wide body US car, what's going on there?
cheers

Shane,
The car is 75 US. spec and was converted to the RHD.

the VIN number you show says 1975 911S for US market and is a coupe, production number 2303.
911= 911
5= 1975
2= 911S U.S.
0 = coupe
2303 = production #

Wow! My heart skipped a beat when I saw that serial number, as I've got 9115202304. Engine number is 6551695, however - so they are not sequential like the chassis numbers.

Hi Cipotifoso,
This car is still up for sale and I will save this thread for the new owner.
Thank you for the info on the engine number.
Burint
