Ingine ID

[John Halverson]

What year 1.7 L does this ID # represent?:

W0056558

The car is a '71 914 but has had some undetermined work performed some time ago. The motor is out so the ID # is quite clear.

Thanks in advance for any assistance,

John

1970 914 1.7L’s engine serial numbers go from W0000001 to W0057460, so you should have a ’70 motor there.
