    Sounds like a previous owner took the drive train and fuel tank from a '74 Carrera 2.7 and put them in your '71S. This should be a really fun car to drive and if you ever want to return your car to the original 2.2L engine you could certainly sell the 911/83 motor and more than pay for a nice 911/02 to put back in the car.
