. . .
Forged steel crank + forged steel rods, ready for install. These are all the original bits --- just restored + balanced. Note the heads of the bolts on the big-ends . . . never seen that before. Zat unique to Porsche?
Porsche's engine case never ceases to amaze me. Seven main bearings? --- for a 2.2-liter engine? No wonder this thing 's held-together all this time!
Case halves are numbered --- like with 356s. Makes sense, I guess . . . but never knew that
......535316.......
. . . engine casting details
Surprising --- all the little scrapes + squiggles + smudges + voids (!) that turn up
Looks like a marking of some kind showing-up on the side of the case
Mg 's so light, it almost doesn't feel like metal
Pretty surreal to think how much power this little package could put out
Also . . .
. . . 1st time these insides have seen the light of day since they were 1st put-together . . .WAY Back When
.........536135..........
very good looking
Light Yellow -74
@lagteknik
. . . windage screens
Sorry --- but I'm really gonna geek-out over these . . .
. . . does anyone even make replacements?
'Till Marco showed me these/told me what they were? . . . never knew these even existed!
....537075....
. . . intermediate shaft . . .
. . . out with the olde --- and in with the fresh . . . note the 930 part#
Marco said the olde one would still work . . . just noisier
No souvenir, this time. Re-cycle
..................
. . . heads
Lotsa numbers, here --- part numbers, dates, even cylinder numbers
Also note the Porsche OEM symbols --- the highly stylized 'CV' (?) in a triangle . . .
. . . yeah-yeah --- extra 'geeky' . . .
. . . but I don't expect to see ANY of this for the rest of my lifetime, soooo . . .
............................
. . . seen on the case half --- 'M' over a crown, looks like
Foundry, maybe?

its going to be a honeymoon for you

That's my guess. I suppose they were handling the magnesium casting back in the day...
