1969 911E - Motor Mystery
Hi all,
I recently acquired a 1969 911E in Silver Metallic over Black and have been thoroughly enjoying the car. I have an enormous record book dating back to 1971 (from second owner to last) and have been pouring through it. The motor appears to have been gone through at least three times over the last 50 years and I'm trying to understand what exactly I've got. At some point in the 90's it got 73 S heads and S cams, but it was gone through again in 2013.
The car pulls very hard from 5-7k and you can absolutely notice it coming on/off cam (feels almost like turbo lag power delivery).
The case and transmission are indeed numbers matching, but after a bit of investigating and using my trusty boroscope, I've realized this car has K1819n heads. Based on a few grids I've seen floating around, I think these are 72/73 911T heads (they have casting numbers of 911.104.302.OR). These appear to have valve sizes of 46/40 vs the original E heads of 42/38, but the port sizes are smaller. Maybe the heads were ported to match the S port sizes of 36/35?
Is there a "standard recipe" for hot rodding these 2.0 motors that would include these T heads and perhaps S cams? Any other things I can learn about the motor without taking it apart? I've seen reference in the record book of this being a 2.2...
Thanks!
