Help with engine # decoding...
hey pelicans, i'm trying to decipher the engine code for my transplanted 3.6. the engine blocks says "64F01578". can anyone help with what F means?
6 = 6 cyl. 4 = type 4 F = ??? 01578 = serial number ![]()

What 911 is this from? I ask as the letter after the first two digits refer to the model years. For the 964 this went from letter L to letter R.
Someone with more knowledge than I on G50 911's will chip in maybe but if taking F as the 100% model year then it suggests the block case is an early G series - as in 1973/74?
