At?

Might be brain dead this morning, but what is "AT"? When I first saw the listing I had a assumed it was Automatic Transmission as the wiring harness are different from a manual transmission, but then I see and read it has a clutch. So clearly my understanding is not correct.

"AT" in the engine serial number means that it is a Porsche Factory Rebuilt engine.

Sorry for jumping on this so late, but AT is short for the German word "Austausch", which means "exchange" in English. So it is a replacement engine. It may be new production or rebuilt, but it was not the original engine for the car. My guess is that it was new production rather than rebuilt, as that was much more common on those than having rebuilds. I would say that at the very least the case was new.
