Hi,

I'm looking for a 911/53 2,4 S with original MFI.

Must be Complete engine for my '72 S. to rebuild or newly restored engine.

I'm interested in Type 911/53 year 1972, means engine # starting with 632xxxx only.

Shipping to Texas, not Europe.

Thanks,

Ricardo

Complete 2.4S engines come up so rarely. I'm very interested to know the market price for something like this.

Good luck.

Deve,

I want to pay fair market value for what I am getting. Around $9,000 or less for a complete and original type 911/53 MFI engine that turns over (with all the 2.4S MFI components in good condition).

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

Looks like you got incredibly lucky, might be a long time before it happens again.

+1 to the above. I think the market may bear a lot more than what you paid last year.
If you're willing to build something up yourself, case #6322208 is currently available on eBay

Thanks a lot for this information!

The 911S Engine Case ON EBAY It's a little expensive, but the owner it's open to offers. I will call and sense if there is room for negotiation.

If you bought a 1972S engine for $9500 running you did well. I'd say a known-condition long block is worth at least $8-9000 ... maybe more if it's been rebuilt.

That is my case /dizzy on ebay . always room for neg.. but 72/73S stuff is EXTREMELY hard to come buy now A days
I do know where the full 72S MFI system for it. but that is 5K also

Hi,

Maybe not interesting for you, but I know a 2.4S crank + conrods + cylinders and pistons, all in VGC which will be for sale in the next weeks / months.

Don't know what the owner wants for that, but I can ask. The problem (for you) is that is is located in France.

If you want more informations, let me know

Olivier.

Hi,

I already purchased the 1972 911S Engine Case and Matching distributor (in great shape and very clean) that was available on eBay. I ended up paying $4,000 delivered to Winnemucca, Nevada.

Hey... kentf14 thanks for the lead!

Now, I need the MFI system, fan, sheet metal, oil cooler, rods, crankshaft with gear, flywheel, “S” cams, etc. all non wearable components from an original 1972S engine.

I would appreciate it very much if you could reply to me with any information about any of these 72/73S stuff.

Best Regards, Ricardo
