Hello people

I have just bought a 944 S2 drop top but I have a problem with the engine. I think one of the pistons is pretty wrecked. I have tried to search for a replacement engine but it has been pretty fruitless. Any suggestions on any specialist breakers? I know the word Porsche and parts are expensive but what sort of price would I expect to pay? Any help appreciated.

Cheers

Martyn

I recommend Porsche Apart in Ramsbottom. They will have one.

Speak to Jon Mitchell in Christchurch. I bet he's got one or two lying around.

Worth going up and at least removing the rocker cover to check the cam chain and cams sprocket teeth.

If it turns out that you need a new engine, I happen to have one up for sale. Let me know if you want it...

Hi Karl,

Just so I can have an idea, how much are you looking for?
