Porsche 930 Turbo 3.2 Engine

Porsche 930 Turbo 3.2 Engine | Exclusive Original Low-Mileage Unit

For sale is a Porsche 930 Turbo 3.2 engine from a 1978 car, recording an exceptionally low 70 kilometres from new. The engine is complete with its ECU and all associated components exactly as shown in the photographs, and was removed from the vehicle as part of a planned performance upgrade — not due to any mechanical fault, failure, or known issue.

At just 70km, this Porsche 930 Turbo 3.2 engine has experienced virtually no operational wear. The internals — bearings, seals, cylinder liners, valve gear, and turbocharger components — are in a condition approaching as-new, making this unit a genuinely exceptional basis for a restoration, preservation build, or performance upgrade project where correctness of specification and minimal wear are paramount.

A Porsche 930 Turbo 3.2 engine with 70km from a 1978 car is extraordinarily rare. At this mileage, the engine has never been subjected to meaningful thermal cycling, bearing load, or component fatigue. Whether the buyer’s intention is preservation in original form or use as the foundation for a high-output build, the mechanical starting point could not be better.
