This is one of four 917/30s built by Porsche at Weissach. It is fitted with an estimated 1100 horsepower, 5,000cc DOHC air-cooled flat 12-cylinder engine with Bosch mechanical fuel injection and twin KKK turbochargers coupled to a four-speed manual gearbox. It also features four-wheel independent suspension with coil spring and shock absorbers and four-wheel ventilated disc brakes.
Porsche dominated the CanAm racing series with Mark Donohue winning every race entered in chassis #002 and #003. This was a potential replacement chassis for the 1974 season. Porsche withdrew from CanAm competition in 1973 when new SCCA rules limited fuel consumption. This chassis was never raced. It is presented in the Sunoco livery as raced by the Penske Team.
