Spyder with 2,4 l. Typ 4 engine 180 hp
Spyder with 1,9 l. engine 115 hp
Well I'm sure there is a definite 550 site, this isn't.

Great car. But is that the engine? I'm not a P connaisseur . . .

Pretty sure its not a 912 engine, I'm sure they were single cam per bank (they were suposed to be a budget Porsche after all). If its not a 550 or RSK engine than at a guess it got to be a 356 Carrera twin cam unit.
No 912 . . .
356 has also a single cam? Or . . .
. . there is the four cam in plastic . . .
Question answered: its the 356 Carrera twin cam unit. Thanx you all!
