    can't ID the year(s) of the one with the impression on the left side.
    also, when did the small port start (& end) for the other ?
    TIA

    One with impression is 67 or earlier. There is a difference in engine console width, so could be one of two, need some SWB help here. Other looks like 78/79 911SC, based on hole for air pump check valve. G

    Because there is no clearance for an A/C bracket on the later shroud , I'm thinking it's for a '76 or '77 . I thought A/C was standard on US SC's .

    Bottom on is definitely non A/C. Yes any air pump car 75-79. Most USA SC's came with A/C but you could order without. Still? is upper one narrow (one piece)or wide engine console (two piece sandwich welded)?

    The upper shroud in the first photo is 65/66, for the pre-a/c one-piece console. It was the only one with symmetrical screw holes.
