Looking at the fan, tilt your head to the right. The #s are between the oil sender sw and the fan.

Look in the upper left in this pic, you can see the number stamped on the web.

For a 78, the number should be 6x8yyyy

The x varies with engine type, yyyy is the sequential number.

values for x:

1=911sc Japan
2=911sc, USA/Can
3=911sc
5=911sc California
7&8=Turbo

An 83 euro motor should be 63Dyyyy, a US/Can would be 64Dyyyy.

ok.. so what would *64C0740* be? is that a US car.. and can they be rebuilt to Euro spec?

That number is an 82 US/Canadian SC.

The primary differences between US and ROW cars in 82 is the compression and the fuel system, giving 204 HP vs 180.

If your car has an O2 sensor, it has the US fuel system.
