Porsche 911-930 Kuehl Hurricane Evaporator Motor
Griffiths' High Output Porsche 911-930 Kuehl Hurricane Evaporator Motor replaces the Porsche 911-930 Evaporator Motor. Our Kuehl brand Wirbelsturm Hurricane Evaporator Blower Motor puts out 30% more air than the OEM Bosch motor and 15% more air than competitors.
Fits
- Porsche 911, 1970-1985, Behr evaporator boxes with flat top covers having a small dimple. LH & RH drive cars
- Porsche 912, 1965-1969, Behr evaporator boxes with flat top covers having a small dimple. LH & RH drive cars
- Porsche 930, 1976-1985, Behr evaporator boxes with flat top covers having a small dimple. LH and RH drive cars
Replaces
- Porsche PN's 901-624-901-00 and 911-624-899-00: (years up to 1985), and Bosch 0130063043000.
The Kuehl Wirbelsturm Hurricane Motor is a permanent magnet motor which typically lasts 3-4 times longer than the competitors inexpensive series wound motor.
Translations - German to English- Kuehl = Cool
- Wirbelsturm = Hurricane
The Kuehl Wirbelsturm Hurricane motor fits vehicles with factory air having a Behr brand evaporator box top as shown here on the left. The top of the box has a small 'dimple'. These earlier flat top evaporator covers can also be identified by the orientation of the original motor inside as its shaft points upward and uses an original 30 vane OEM steel blower wheel; as opposed to later model evaporator covers having a 2" high bulge and the motor shaft points downward and uses a plastic blower cage as shown below.
If you have a 911 or 930, 1986 to 1989 model year, and your evaporator box top looks like the picture on the left
you can "back date" your evaporator top to use our motor. To do this you need to locate a good used evaporator box top, with the old motor, metal blower wheel and the plastic platform the motor and blower wheel are mounted on.... from a 1970-1985 year car. Best sources for locating these parts are dedicated Porsche salvage yards, Rennlist or Pelican forum classifieds.
The parts needed if you have a 1986-1989 year are the following parts found in models 911, 912 and 930 from years 1970-1985:
(A) the older version Behr evaporator box top, part number is 911-573-021-00
(B) the older version metal 30 vane blower wheel, such as part number, 901 573 906 00, or early versions of 901-573-906-01 (30 vane only).
(C) the older version plastic platform support, part number 911-573-323-00

We installed this motor only because the original was noisy. We were pleasantly surprised to find that it moves a lot more air than the original motor.

No question that the fan was stronger. Bottom line the parts worked as described and were straight forward to install as on as I was replacing everything but the rear condensor.

The fan works great, however one of the mounting brackets fell off the motor when I was installing. I epoxied the leg back on. Appeared to be only partially tac welded.
Griff –
Sorry to hear about the bracket issue, if you call us we’d replace the unit

I purchased the evaporator, the hurricane fan, and the center vent. It made a HUGE difference. Vent temps of just over 40 Fahrenheit and PLENTY of air. The hurricane fan is a BIG improvement. I am going back for the variable speed controller. All good!

1989 911. Completely changed the AC on this car. The volume increase was a welcome addition!!! From a 35 year Porsche tech.
Whitney Wright –
This was the final piece of my Griffith’s upgrade, and it made all the difference! I have installed everything they have for my ‘89 G Body Cabriolet to keep cool in AZ. I had a new OEM blower motor, so I don’t buy this one…but I finally wised up and got the biggest piece of the puzzle installed and I couldn’t be happier!! Now I have LOTS of cold air blowing on me, and it keeps me cool!! Get this, you won’t regret it
