Engine number confusion!

[Chassis87]

Dear all,

I have found an engine with the following number: 6530689


I used this site, since I found it in a similar topic: Porsche 911 Fahrzeugidentifikation



I just want to double check the results with someone....


6 - six cylinder (ok that's obvious)
5 - 911 TV ( what does Tv mean?)
3 - from a 73

0689 - then no idea


motor should have - 130/5600



can anyone check if I am decoding this right?

also should the motor be an injection or carb model?


Thank you and sry for the boring question

Yes, you are decoding correctly.

TV indicates the engine was a T engine, carb'd instead of CIS. It is a 73 and the final four digits are the sequence numbers.
