912 Engine

[Grant Glascock]

The engine in my 1967 912 has the number 4095137. Is there a way to identify the year of this engine? Thanks.

Most likely 1969 engine. 67 would be six digit SN.

Yup. 68 or 69. Go to www.912registry.org

A '68 would generally be a 128XXXX number. '69 is a 409XXXX

Interesting, I have spare engine # 4096855 but no idea of what vin it came from? Any way to find that out?

Thank!

Without the car popping on the internet and the owner state they are looking for that engine, the only other shot would be for you to purchase a Kardex but I don’t think they will search just for an engine number, maybe though?
