. The engine number is 902586. Casting numbers on each side of the case are 90110110201 and 90110110101. Both sides of the case are stamped 950. The case is date stamped 6/65. The engine type is 901/01. This case has been inspected by a machine shop and appears to have no visual defects and is in tolerance for a 40 year old Porsche engine case. Stock#041309.

Hi Tom,

It is looking better now

i was at an event a couple years ago and was doing some research on a R project and recorded these numbers from 67s and 68s. don't remember the alu or mag. and not sure if these are duplicates to what you have. couldn't figure out what the build number was. GREAT JOB. just a note, the engine # probably was not stamped on the case until it was tested so no numbers would be lost and so the type and build numbers were there to keep track. the yanks of course like chevy, stamped the vin when the car and engine were mated on the line. 909247 901/05 5338, 961737 901/02 9395, 4080075 901/02 9337, 4080524 901/02 11396, 4081121 901/02 14080. gordon

That is very weird; out of sequence by a lot, almost as though the two photos (serial # , type & build ) are from two separate engines. Build 6576 should be between 960492 and 960841. Serial 961993 should have build in the 88xx region.
