2.2S teardown
 

I have been slowly tearing down a 2.2S engine. I was told this engine was sitting under a tarp since 1972 and had only one year of year since new. Here are some pictures. Please tell me if you think the engine could have been as described.

I am not sure what I am doing with it yet. It may end up in my 73.5T as a high compression 2.4S, sorta a 2.4S+.

The throttle shafts are just TIGHT. I need to take them apart to lube them up. NO slop at all.

Check out the gear on the pump. I dont see any wear. Cam gear looks the same.

Cam lobes look perfect. I didnt even wipe them down.

Heads were only wiped down with a rag. I will dis-assemble but look good so far.

I haven't split the case yet, but I like what i see so far. To my untrained eye the engine looks as advertised so far.

I would appreciate the feedback from those that know more. Whadda you think?

Thanks!

Looks pretty new to me, unless the cyl cross hatch isn't factory?

The rocker shafts have rsr seals in them, not something you would see in a factory engine. Also the rockers arms seem refinished, normally they have a fairly sharp edge, which in this case seems broken. In any case an interesting find

When did Porsche stop using forged rockers in their "S" motors?
