Wink 924 Engine

Is the 924 2 liter engine an interference design like the 944?

No, the 2.0 liter engine is not (an any form, turbo or non-turbo). The only 924 to have this type of engine was the 924S (86-88)... and it had the same engine as the 944.

It's not supposed to be, but it is perilously close. Mine probably is what with my insane compression pistons.

Hey MAS, do you post on the 924board.org ? A couple of us are thinking of a BC get together for 924's and 931's and maybe a couple of worthy 944's, probably on the Island.

Yes... I post on the 924 board too. Keep me posted, as I'm interested

The 931 engines are interference engines, I have a bunch of bent valves I can send you.

Paul is right. The 931 is an interference engine.

I think a valve hit my piston pretty hard... <img src="graemlins/icon107.gif" border="0" alt="[icon107]" />
