How many per day?
I have a 68 911T SWT w/o engine/trans, BUT have an opportunity to buy an engine that is only 154 off in numbers (earlier though) than what the factory gave me for our engine number. Does anybody know, roughly, how many days off this # may have been for ours? Should I buy it due to its proximity in # to ours? I doubt that I would find THE actual engine, though that would be awesome. Thanks for your input.

Well, if you did not misread (I previously misread your year for a 69...) your VIN, you got a...
1968 911T Targa (RoW). 521 Produced, the engine would have been a 901/03 with a serial # between 2080001-2081754.

VIN is correct. The engine # per the COA is 2080535 The trans # is 2280485 (901/03). I need both. Thanks

The Red Book does not list a Transmission type of 901/03 for the 68 911T. It list 901/10 or 905/00 (Sporto).
I'll check a couple more reference.

I understand that the COA should not be taken as gospel truth. I appreciate your research.

Unfortunately the engine I was referring to above has been sold. Still on/in the hunt though.

![]() If you google "porsche 901/03 transmission", they do fit the 68 911T and some of the link have them for sale for less then $1,000. It might be worth while to check them out and if you are very lucky... ![]()

How did you determine it was a RoW, and not a US market car?

So, does that infer that all T's were RoW and not US bound? Thanks for the input btw.

It does look like it for the 911T (touring) Targa, according to the Red book but they also list some 911T & 911T (Karmann) which would be coupe and have a "2" in the forth VIN position but not listed in the sequence (see post # 11) but in the write up they allude that the T (touring) was offered at a lower price and with lower performance (110 hp) engine in Europe.
Welcome to Porsche not so precise record keeping ![]() In Waynes Engine Rebuild books, he list the 68 901/03 engine as a European version in a 911T, so all the indicators point that your car is a 911T Targa RoW. In 69, the 911T was available in 2 versions (Targa & Coupe) for both the U.S. and RoW

This is a much more accurate VIN list for 1968, you need both 4th & 5th digits to define them.
