new 2.0 -2.7 Magnesium Crankcases Available through Porsche Classic

[reedminor]

Apparently also 2.0 Aluminum ones, like was fitted to my 68L

Priced in the US from (according to Marco Gerace from TLG in LA) $US12290.

A great initiative from Porsche Classic and one they will do well with I think.

I presume 3.0 litre and larger will become available in time?

Now they tell me .......

Could not tunnel-bore my 2.4 mag case for a rebuild since oversize big end shell bearings were not available.

Sold the original case with the car so it was "numbers matching" to keep the purists happy.

Now these are available the numbers matching mantra kinda goes out the window. Perhaps now "original numbers matching" will become the catchcry ?

I had the exact same thoughts too! Without having any knowledge of the product I would think that maybe the identifying stamping numbers on the cases or another mechanism or design change that would identify the new casings and while unscrupulous owners could restamp original numbers to the casings purists would still be able to differentiate between a matching numbers car and a non matching nos one. Just my thoughts. Nev

Based on the images in the Porsche Parts Explorer - Looks like it’ll have an “8R” casting number as opposed to 7R…
