Title: A833 ID
Post by: Murray on April 19, 2019, 10:36:20 AM

Have just come over from the dark side (FABO) to find the info I need. Am restoring a '68 cuda, BB, w/A833, matching numbers. Machined pad shows all the correct numbers, dates, VIN. My question is in the yellow, ink stamped, three digit numbers near the pad. Made note of these three numbers during recent rebuild but painted over. Now I realize they have meaning and am seeking more info. The three numbers seemed to be "113". Can you help? Are these numbers part of a part number or they a "code"? Do I need to buy Galen's books? Any direction you can provide will be helpful. Thanks.

:welcome:

GG's white book shows all 1967-'68 4-speed a-bodies transmission code as "041"

I don't have a copy of one, but the number would also be on a broadcast sheet under "BUILD CODES" TRANS. (3-digits)

You guys are great! It almost makes me want to go out and buy an E-body. Thanks for the help. Now looking at my build sheet under "Build Codes" I see "041". This must be it. You just made my day, thanks for the help.

No Hi and Bye here. I will be looking in on you boys regularly because of all the things I can learn. I was a Mopar mechanic from 1967 to 1971 so I love all these cars.
