I have seen these on a few engines, including my Bumblebee....never come across any reference that says what they indicate.
Any ideas? Dave P? Steve G? Paul H? Perry? Attached thumbnail(s) |

No, I don't know the answer.
My Sahara Beige engine tin has 621 on it. My car was made in July 1973 so that kind of blows any theory that the last number represents the year. Maybe if we get enough people to reply with their 3 digit number along with their year and engine, we may be able to fiigure it out. example (621 - '73 2 Liter) Is the middle number always a 2 ? Mybe the 2 means 2 liter. We need more data to figure this out. |
