Looks like a 1980 3.0 litre from a USA/Canada 911 SC.

According to the 'Porsche Family Tree' book that engine Serial Number belongs to a 1970 914/6; 110HP @ 5800 rpm.
Hope this helps.

are you sure it's 640 .. . and not 64D. . .?
64D0830 would make it a 1982 US spec 3.0. Go with Toms answer. . .my book may be missing 1980 info.

What?!?!

There should be another number just forward approx. 3 inches and on a horizontal surface. Look closely, use a bright flashlight, its small and hard to locate. They are a bit smaller than the ones you found on the vertical surface. Should be something like "930/03" in that format.

It may be a "d", I checked it late last night in my garage with a light as best I could. Bought the car with the impression it was a 3 litre , (thats what the owner, a movie studio, told me) the guy did not know much about Porsches though, didn't even know how to open the gas tank,, Just came from stuttgardt southwest, his impression was a 79 to 83 3 litre, had me worried about the 2 litre part for a minute though, although it would be awful strong for a 2 litre and it also has the late model injection on it. Thanks.
PS, bought the car for 8,800 what do you think? http://boards.rennlist.com/upload/76for9.3.jpg Last edited by adamsbomb; 11-21-2002 at 10:25 AM.. |

Kurt, Kurt ... there weren't any 1969 914's! First were '70 models built in the fall of 1969! They were the entry-level replacements for the 912 ...
