997tt engine price?
Hi,
Please tell me what is the price for the whole new factory reconditioned 997tt engine , with or without the core?
Is it true that Porsche can not sell new engines, if the engine model is over 9 years old?
Many many thanks in advance,
This is interesting , enjoy

Ball park my guess is $45k USD for a GT3 motor. So its not exact but its probably within 10K
+/-. Probably Porsche doesnt hold stock of full motors for that long just because of logistics.

just so worried about the reliability issues of these engines, and kinda calculating the worst case scenario in comparison to the NA997 engine. Is it true that NA997 engine is +/- 30K USD?
Many Thanks.
Many Thanks.

The wet sumps are completely different consumer grade engines. The m96 would retail for around $8200, can't believe the m97 is much more. You have nothing to worry about with the gt1 dry sump, they have a long history of endurance racing.
