If you have ever been wondering just what a 1973 911 T engine looks like the day it was delivered, this is it.

This is the engine of a 911 with 10 miles on the odometer. Remanafactured by Porsche AG. It was at the Porsche Parade Concours today. More photos to come.

Great idea for a thread!

I'll have a 2278 Type IV stroker to add pics of in a few weeks :)

Henry,

Aaron just completed my 2.5 L ss (with Mod-Solex and 40 PMOs).

Well he keeps telling me that I should get rid of my red Ignition Wires!!!!

Do you think that he is right??

OH, great looking engines. (And Aaron did a FAN Frigin Tastic job on my little motor. BUT PLEASE DON'T TELL HIM OR ANYONE ELSE;))

HOLY @$#&!

Follow that!

Plug wire color is a personal choice. The purist will insist on black and they have every right to choose the color of their own plug wires.

I would think that Aaron's perspective on color might be slightly skewed.

"I'll believe that when me s**t turns purple and smells like rainbow sherbet." Super Troopers by way of Aaron Burnham ;)

Feast your eyes on this Cayman S:

Hey, when was that taken? That's my 930 next to that lil' croc. Did they go out to Burbank to visit this body shop that day?

Lots of details in this photo. Note the paint on the fasteners.

keep them coming...

this is what a FRESH(sassy) 1987 PCA SHOWROOM STOCK LOOKS LIKE!


dynoed @ 1-BILL-YON HP!



you must be type rated for this extreme HP and also type rated for C.R.A.P.! (cabriolet racing and performance).


or how days of my life were gobbled up cleaning parts,buying parts,cleaning parts,fitting parts,buying more "while yer in der parts."


or how i spent a hell of alot of hard earned money on something that sits in my garage waiting for the track.

we also just recently updated to a spal fan on the rear decklid condenser. this sounds like a freeking hovercraft at idle and scares the CRAP out of any and all competitors.

also we were just type rated and certified and trained in using ,handling K&N filter socks.

note zoomier than hell carbon fiber fuse cover on left of engine bay. we SAVED .0000001 of a pound of weight. this was directly attributed to us getting over the hump to that magical/mythical 1-BILL-YON HP rating.


and you guys thought it was EASY being SHOWROOM STOCK!

Nice stock air filter... :D

rules state i may upgrade air filter, upgrade exhaust to headers and remove a/c belt.


please note a/c belt is NOT REMOVED nor EVER WILL BE!


since we are traveling faster than the speed of sound, and wearing 4 layers of nomex(inc gloves/socks/baclava/shoes), it tends to get rather warm and we need the a/c or suffer a fate worse than death.


wait til ya see how much money we can poo out on the just around the corner a/c uber doober upgrade so we dont melt down upon re-entry!

:D :D

You're posts are not alway easy to read, but they sure are funny :D:D

dont cha love it when the fan is whirring away and the pic catches it!

I have my doubts that the plastic air cleaner ever looked like that, fresh from the factory. It is a rough-molded one-piece affair that suffered from an inconsistant supply and quality of pvc (or whatever raw material was used) during the molding operation. Mine was almost two tone left-to-right. I still regret sanding it and shooting it with a matte black epoxy to get it to look like the one in the picture. Also, the throttle bodies were natural metal finish, not painted black.

Well, if you're gonna pick nits, the fan pulley should be the color of the nut as should be all the MFI linkage.

But, the thread was/is about engine porn as shown by Henry's painted engines, not about what is concours or correct.

In addition, it's what's inside that really counts. I used to get beat in racing by the dirtiest looking motors that just ran like an ape with his ass on fire pissing and crapping all the way to the checkers.

sorry - just didn't want anyone to be miss-led (by the first line in this thread "If you have ever been wondering just what a 1973 911 T engine looks like the day it was delivered, this is it.") and copy that 73 motor as the die-for, gold-standard that they are going to re-create to make the ultimate Manhattan Trophy winner.

Here is another view of the auction car engine.

This is from a mirror so it is flipped.

That looks like a chain, not a belt.

J-

The pic must be 2 years old, at least. It's of Porcupine911's car, before he sold it. Pic was taken at one of Sherwood's Saturday morning get-togethers.

Wow - that's a lot of spark plugs!

BTW - Henry won.

Has it been that long? I try and make it a few times a year. I live just down the 2 fwy but kids and family duties make it really hard. Do you show up often because I really don't remember seeing any blue 930s. But then again, I don't go as often as I should.

The shroud should be Red, considering the price asked for a raffle ticket. Also, the paint on the MFI linkage was yellow back in the day..

Oh well, even the factory today can't perfectly replicate the factory of then...:D

Original '72S engine for comparison. 100% as it left the factory except for the "toro high torque engine" decal and the pressure fed tensioners upgrade...not visible here. I dunno about '73..but my valve covers came from the factory painted black.

wrong, yellow was correct for the T, green for the E, red for the S

http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1312542611.jpg

What did that tag say? Was that a factory original back in the day?

You didn't get it...I said "considering the price of the raffle tickets the shroud should be red." Meaning, the raffle car shoulda been an S!
