Engine Pad

The engine pad was stamped with the engine assembly plant, assembly date and application code.  The location of that code was behind the distributor on L6 engines and in front of the passenger’s side cylinder head on V8’s.

Typical Engine Pad

enginepad_6Y204760_T0404IGR

The format of the engine code remained the same from 1964 through 1970.  Plant-Month-Day-Application suffix code

There were four plants that produced engines for the fullsize cars.
F – Flint, Michigan (L6 and small block V8)
K – McKinnon Industries, Canada (L6 and small block V8)
T – Tonawanda, NY (small block and big block V8)
V – Flint, MI (small block V8 starting 1967)

In the above example:
T – Tonawanda, NY engine plant
04 – April
04 – 4th day of the month
IG – 396/325HP engine with Powerglide transmission
R – Rochester carburetor (Carb designation used only in 66)
6Y204760 – partial VIN# from a fullsize Chevy built at Wilmington, DE

From 1964-1967, the partial VIN# on the block was stamped on all engines with at least 300HP.  In 1968, all V8’s had the partial VIN# stamped on the block.

Block Casting Number

Here are the engine block casting numbers used for small blocks and big blocks. The casting date on the L6 block is on the right side. It is located on the rear, top left (driver’s side) for all others. Casting numbers could be used for multiple engine displacements during the same model year. The same block could appear in both 2-bolt and 4-bolt main configurations, depending on application. Multiple casting numbers were sometimes used for the same application in a model year.

  • A 3844422 block has been found from a early 65 409/400 motor stamped with the JA engine suffix and Wilmington, DE partial vin.

Block Casting Date

The block casting date was either cast on the top, back of the block or on the passenger’s side between the freeze plugs.  The 64 and 65 409 blocks, used a date code that stated the day of the year the block was cast.  For example, 365 would be the last day of the year, December 31st and 1 would be January 1st. It is located on the top, rear of the block on the passenger’s side.

All other blocks used a Month, Day, Year format.  The letter is the month the block was cast.  A is January, B February, C March, I September, L December. etc.  That is followed by the day of the month it was cast and the year. E 13 5 would be May 13th, 1965.  On small blocks, the casting date was located next to the casting number.  On big blocks, it was located between the freeze plugs on the passenger’s side.

The casting date is usually less than 30 days before the engine assembly date.  However, some can be several months earlier or longer.  Those cases are rare.


Transmission Codes

The transmission code consisted of the type of transmission and the date it was assembled.  The different kinds of codes used will be detailed below.  Pretty much all transmissions used the same format for the code except the Turbo 400.

For all transmissions except the TH400, these are the transmission type codes used.

Powerglide and TH350 code location. Passenger's side of the transmission oil pan.

Powerglide and TH350 code location. Passenger’s side of the transmission oil pan.

Automatic
C: Cleveland Powerglide
T: Toledo Powerglide
E: McKinnon Powerglide
B: Cleveland TH350
Y: Toledo TH350
Manual
S: Saginaw 3-speed
K: McKinnon 3-speed

Saginaw 3-speed and 4-speed code location. Driver's side of case below side cover.

Saginaw 3-speed and 4-speed code location. Driver’s side of case below side cover.

P: Muncie 4-speed
R: Saginaw 4-speed
W: H.D. Warner 3-speed
H: H.D. Muncie 3-speed (69 only)

Examples for 1964-1966 transmission code format:
C1210   Cleveland Powerglide assembled on December 10th
P0301   Muncie 4-speed assembled on March 1st

trans_4J267988_P0413

1964 Muncie 4-speed code location. Driver’s side of main case on machined surface for side cover, bottom right. Note: Partial VIN number from Janesville, WI plant.

Starting in 1967, the transmission code date format changed.  Following the transmission type, was the model year, month and day of the month.  The letters used for the month were not the same exact as those used in the engine casting date.

A – Jan, B – Feb, C – Mar, D – Apr, E – May, H – June, K – July,
M – Aug, P – Sep, R – Oct, S – Nov, T – Dec.

Examples for 1967-1970 transmission date code format:
Y9E10   1969 Toledo TH350 assembled on May 10th
P8T03   1968 Muncie 4-speed assembled on December 3rd

1965-1969 Muncie 4-speed code location. Drivers side, rear edge of the main case.

1965 and up Muncie 4-speed code location. Passenger’s side, rear edge of the main case.

Turbo 400 transmission code format

The Turbo 400 automatic transmission has the application and date codes stamped on a metal tag riveted to the passenger’s side of the transmission case.  The tag has several codes on it, which consisted of the full transmission code with Julian date code, application code, model year and serial number of the transmission.  This full transmission code will be found on your Protect-O-Plate if it still with your car.  The actual application code that would be found on the broadcast sheet and that is also on the tag starts with a C for Chevrolet but the C is omitted in the transmission code.  For example, the application code may be CB but in the transmission code itself, only a B will be used.

The following is a list of TH400 application codes used only on the full-size Chevrolets.

CA 396 engine (also 350 engine in 1969)
CB 427 engine (L36)
CD 327 engine
CF 427 engine (LS1 with 2.29:1 axle)
CG 396 engine (with 2.29:1 axle)
CH 427 engine (L36 with 2.29:1 axle)
CM 307 engine
CQ 427 engine (LS1)
CY 427 engine (L72)

The Julian date in the transmission code started at 1 for January 1st of the start of that model year and continued past 365 until the end of production.  For example, transmissions built early in the model year in August and September would have a date code in the 200’s where as those built after January 1st would start from 366.  Transmissions assembled in July would have a date in the 500’s.

67A509  67 TH400 for use with 396 engine, assembled on May 24th
69B350  69 TH400 for use with 427 (L36) engine assembled on December 16th


Rear Axle Numbers

The rear axle is final component of the drivetrain to be covered on this page.  What can be found on the axle housing is the stamped axle code with assembly date, housing casting number and date housing was cast.  In 1964, the axle code was stamped on the front, right side of the differential carrier housing.  Starting in 1965, the axle code and date are stamped on the front of the axle tube on the passenger’s side.  The casting number is located on the front of the carrier on the bottom right corner.  The casting date is on the rear of the carrier, towards the top on the driver’s side.  The rear axle casting date uses the fame format as the engine casting date.

axle_8L163442_date

The assembly code consists of the application code, assembly date and assembly plant.  Axles were assembled at either Buffalo (code B) or Detroit Gear and Axle (code G).  One exception was in 1964 when the first letter of the application code was the plant. (A – Detroit, B – Buffalo).  On positraction axles, a letter for manufacturer of the posi unit will appear under the assembly code.  It will be a D for Dana, E for Eaton or W for Warner.

Sample 1964 axle code: AB1202
BB 3.36 non posi assembled at Detroit
1202 assembled December 2nd

A sample 1965-1969 rear axle code would look like DH1020B which decodes to the following:
DH: 3.31 12 bolt rear axle with positraction
1020: Assembled October 20th
B: Buffalo axle plant

The following will be a table of application codes for the axles used in the full-size Chevrolets.  Prior to the 10 bolt/12 bolt rear axles that came out in 1965, the axle housing was the same for all ratios.  The gear set was installed in a carrier, also referred to as a “pumpkin” that could removed from the front side of the axle assembly as a complete unit.  It was possible to change gear sets simply by swapping the pumpkin.  The carrier assembly came in both positraction and non-positraction versions. SW is station wagon.
