Will look tonight - Cheers Mike
Are we talking about part number 944-624-051-00? I noticed it is discontinued. WOW.

Cowboy - no luck on the motor. I can get you one from a local guy shipped out but it is $200 bucks. Let me know. Did not realize how rare these motors are.
Cheers, Mike

If you find yourself not getting a motor, don't hesitate to take the Sawzall,
cut and delete the whole smash for the most badass extraction of all time.
Trace a pattern a few inches aft of the headlamp upper extent, hold her steady,
push the start button and go to work.
Perform a partial 993 fender transplant using the front section to have the HID lamps
set at the correct angle. It's not only functional.... It looks great.
it's somewhat challenging. But it's a really fun project to do.
You'll laugh at Porsche for a decade *for getting the headlamps wrong.
*Porsche knew it: A prototype done at some point during production had fixed 993 style headlamps.
The badass cabriolet (in Tahoe Blue?) with some interesting upgrades is sitting in the Porsche museum.

So my local guys do not have one. It was actually a 928 motor. But I found this one $50 cheaper.

^^Both of mine went into the trash--then realized my oversight in not mailing them off to Jeff C in Connecticut to bring them to the annual swap meet/s down in PA. For the price of shipping and an extra few pounds on his trailer, he could have helped someone in need of a motor.
