WTB: 1972 2.4S engine with original MFI (type 911/53)

72T MFI on pelican: http://forums.pelicanparts.com/porsc...fi-system.html

Hey Ricardo! I'm M491Cabriolet on pelicanparts.com. This is a classic case of never never never sell stuff, ever, because you never know when you will need it again. I really want/need my engine back! Would you ever consider selling it back to me? In fact, even if you were to have another one like it for me, I would be happy. Thanks.

To give you an idea, last year I bought from a fellow Pelicanite (M491Cabriolet) a really beautiful 1972 2.4S (type 911/53) complete engine with its original MFI, for $9,500. And It was a very well preserved engine and all components were present.

Now I'm in the market for another one, for a new project!

Thank you, Ricardo

M491Cabriolet,

The 1972 2.4S engine was disassembled. It was a very good core. The case, crank, rods, and heads were all restorable. The muffler was in good condition. The oil cooler was from a ‘71 and earlier 911 and had to be replaced. The MFI was almost complete, only missing the micro switch. All-in-all, It was an excellent starting point!

The engine NOW has been restored better than new!... Tom Woodford did a great job rebuild it in concours condition.

Tom was the technical editor for "How to Rebuild and Modify Porsche 911 Engines." and typically is very picky about which engine jobs he takes on. He typically will only accept jobs where he can remove/rebuild/reinstall/run-in and test the engine inside of the car.

The engine was built as a 2.5 with a custom big bore set of pistons/cylinders (10.5-1). It does produce 220HP with the stock muffler and if you see the engine appears as a stock 2.4S engine with MFI. It uses the stock Bosch CD system.

I'm sorry I can not consider selling it back to you!... this Engine is going into a fully restored 1972 Porsche 911s.

Best, Ricardo

Ricardo , where are you located at.

Platas,

I update my profile information, including location MARYLAND....

Riccardo,

I am up the street from you (not literally, but almost). I'm in Northern Virginia in the Tysons Corner area. Would you please PM me your contact details? Thanks. M

+2 on the above 9 K complete 2.4 S engine being pretty much a give away ...

I have another 72 S case complete 4500 we want. Plus we have many other misc 2.4S bits: rods, an oil pump, some engine tin, the red shroud...maybe a distributor. Throttle plates that were in a light fire and some that were not, the plastic MFI air cleaner housing...

Oddly enough, I recall a Ricardo whom I sold a complete 2.4S mfi system to and shipped for him to NV 2-3 years ago...Were you in Guatemala(or another Central American Country) prior?

Regards,
Kevin Roush

On second thought and before anyone wants to buy the 72 case I just offered -I will hang onto it. I have most all the parts to build a complete motor. and given what has happened to the car "values" in the last yr or two , should put it all together. I do have many misc extra 2.4 S engine bits however if guys needed random parts.
