If by any chance these are interchangeable with each other there will be a Big price difference…!

99610504172 is the 987 2005 and 2006 intake and exhaust tappet and 2007 up exhaust tappet in 2007 the intake Tappets changed because of VarioCam Plus. With that said this is the same as the previous 99610504150. I purchased 6 -99610504172, from the local Porsche dealers part department. I used 4 to rebuilding my 2004 motor. The Porsche parts clerk said the 72 part supersedes the previous 50 number.
I now have a Tappet from a 2003 2.7 inside is imprinted INA 577.9 I have A tappet from a 2004 3.2 Inside it is also marked INA 577.9 I also have a 99610504172 the part listed as the 987 current used part Inside it is marked again INA 577.9.
After looking at the video post previously, I took all 3 apart. The internal parts are all the same. The internal parts can be install in all three bodies and they all compress and return.
