Does the blank replacement case have a drilled hole for a oil return line on the face of the generator stand? If not. it is likely a late 25 or 36hp VW replacement case.Leland Imler wrote: ↑Mon Jan 18, 2021 12:17 pm Thanks for the ID on the 912 motors. Much appreciated!
Anyone know about the Blank Serial # plate on a 2 piece Case?
Someone told me that Porsche at one time sold "replacement" Cases....and left the Serial# off those Cases.
Can anyone verify that bit of information...?

What are the 3 sets of two-digit numbers cast into the right side of the generator stand? If unreadable, there should be a similar set of numbers on the left half of the case, next to the oil pump cavity.
What are the part numbers cast into each half of the case, just below the pushrod tube holes?
At the top of the generator stand, there is a boss cast into the case next to the oil filler hole. Is it drilled or undrilled?

"Jugs" or "cylinders" are not really important at this point because they are probably all worn out, and only cast iron ones can be re-bored to be useful. Late heads, the ones you want (if they have no cracks), have 38mm intake and 34mm exhaust valves. Earlier heads have 31mm exhaust valves, but might still have value if in decent shape. A lot of those matching #'s have no real significance except to show that all 3 pieces go together, and that is important. The #616/36, 39 etc. are engine type numbers, so you do seem to have a bunch of fairly valuable late engine "projects". By the way, 2-piece motor cases refer to very early '50s motors and are quite valuable today; I don't think you have any of those. In 1955 Porsche developed what we call the "3-piece" motor, with a separate front cover where the actual serial number is stamped. You've gotten yourself into a pretty big project that is going to take a bit of work (there's that dirty word) to realize what should be a very nice profit in these Covid days.

Hi Jan.....if you can help me out a bit more on ID-ing the "replacement case." There is also a Crank Shaft in the case...but a bit rusty.Leland Imler wrote: ↑Mon Jan 18, 2021 7:20 pmDoes the blank replacement case have a drilled hole for a oil return line on the face of the generator stand?
