1981 Porsche 911 SC Targa Manual Registration number: OJI 7696 Date of first registration: 09 021981 VIN number: WPOZZZ91ZBS140720 Engine number: 6311965 MOT expires: 24 05 2018 V5C present listing 13 previous owners Current mileage: 119,549 Yellow With previous MOTs for 2001, 2005 and 2017, with some invoices With a 3 lire engine the SC became the sole non-turbo Porsche. The crankcase was now of aluminium rather than magnesium, and the crankshaft stronger and equipped with larger bearings. The fan had fewer blades in order to reduce noise and, more fundamentally, the capacity had risen from 2687 to 2994cc. The unit was fed by Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection with a five-speed gearbox. Servo brakes were standard. The power output of the early SC's was actually 20 horsepower down on that of its predecessor (180 as opposed to 200bhp). However, new camshafts endowed the unit with a higher, flatter torque curve that made the car easier to drive and virtually as quick overall. Nevertheless, the output was increased to 188bhp in 1979 and 204bhp in 1981. The additional specification of the £1,500 optional 'Sport' package included: front air dam; large rear wing; forged Fuchs alloy wheels rims - 6in front/7in rear; gas-filled dampers; Recaro seats; Blaupunkt stereo/radio cassette and electric aerial Buyer's Premium of 12% inclusive of VAT @ 20%
