Greetings!What we have for sale today is a 1957 Porsche 356 A Carrera 547/1 engine which was removed from a BMW motorcycle owned by Vasek Polak.
I've owned the engine for about 9 years with a plan to put it into my 1957 Speedster. but I kind of like the low-powered Speedster for my around-town jaunts.
The carrera would make a great sound. though.
Just the engine. number P 90846
is for sale. The crank has been checked out and OKay-ed by Bill Doyle (Tom at Carquip told me this when I purchased this engine from him) and all parts are ready for assembly.
The crank has the ribbed-rods already installed. and the heads are penny-ed and ready for installation. too.
There are two sets of pistons with this engine.
The sand-cast Solex carbs have been rebuilt. along with the two distributors.
Both distributors have also been curved and come with their test papers. The oil pump has a spare set of over-sized gears in case you want to add them. and the distributors are housed in a magnesium 60 degree V-drive assembly.
New gaskets and all shims. nuts. bolts. tubes and wires are included. What this engine does need is the upper sheet metal tin. throttle linkage. the fan. conical cover front and back. and the nut to hold on the fan. I have the lower Carrera heater boxes and a reproduction generator stand with generator locking nut.
I can also supply either a 6-volt or 12-volt generator.
Email or call if you have any questions. I can offer a bill of sale for the engine. if needed.
International interest is welcome. but I recommend a visit to view the engine. I am currently and have been an on-and-off 356 Registry member for 20 years or so.
I'm also a 356 CAR member as well as a CSRG member.
Sold As-IS and Where-Is.
thanks. ill
