    911T Engine Question

    Hi all!

    I've been looking at some information regarding 911T Engines for 68', 69' and 70's, and I found some mixed details. As I understand the 1968 911T (A Series) had a 2.0L Engine with 110 hp @ 5,800 rpm, but this model never made it to the US. Later, the 911T made its debut in the US market in 1969 replacing the 912 with its B Series engine, pretty similar to the 68', but with Webers, and an output of 125 hp. Then 70's cars were upgraded to 2.2L and still had 125hp ().

    I believe I'm getting confused with the information I found since in 69' the 125hp engine for the 911T was only offered in the US while in Europe it kept the same 110hp engine? Any help clearing this doubt will be really helpful.

    Thanks!!

    I know the 2.0 to be 110HP and yes the 2.2 is around 125HP, i had a source for all this, there's a book called "original porsche 911" and it tells you what came with the car, specs, options, measurements, etc, i was able to preview the first few pages of it through amazon

    Thanks


    KZ1911 - I have the Red Book with all the info too, but I found some conflicting info from some legit Porsche sites and got a bit confused, such as: http://www.road-scholars.com/1969-po...r-44000-miles/

    Thanks for the help.

    Here are specs from InterEurope Workshop Manual No. 187 from 1972 comparing horsepower of the various 2.0 and 2.2 engines. Keep in mind that the engine outputs are shown as DIN, expressed as a lower number than the SAE method. The two rating systems sometimes causes confusion.

    I'd say there's confusion or conflicts with units they use, DIN, SAE, HP like john says, im pretty sure it was 110HP when i looked it up, i have another book that quotes "the C-series cars in sept 1969 brought the displacement up to 2195cc...now with twin Zenith 40 TIN went from 110HP to 125HP, 911E from 140HP to 155HP"

    make sure you pay attention to the units used, if the mention DIN, SAE or HP because those are different
