930 engine

[GradyM]

Wondering if anyone can identify what this motor is. 930/60 case, 4/86 dated heads.Doesnt look like a turbo intake though.Was rebuilt and then sat.Value? Thanks guys.

930/60 is a 1978-ish 3.3 turbo motor.
The manifolds are 3.2 Carrera.
The original turbo intake parts are in the background.
The silver paint job is making me want to puke.

It also looks like the Throttle body was rotated so that a stock IC could be used. Clewitt does this as he did mine.

Hope that is silver paint. If not its grit blasting and that is bad news.

The tin cylinder baffles, back of the crank, pilot bearing, and various fasteners look to me like they were sitting outside for a long time. Wonder if the ports were covered?

This engine was sitting outside.Had the intake installed but not bolted on.There is cam break in lube on the cams so I guess it has never been run.My guess is there could be water in it or at least moisture. I dont know whether to try and turn it over with a ratchet by hand to see if it spins or leave it alone for someone to dissassemble it and go through.The silver is a spray bomb paint that some jackass sprayed on,not sandblasting which I guess is the lesser of two evils.If anyones interested in this boat anchor let me know.
