I just got my blacktop motorset. Im pleased as punch & everything, but im curious: Is there a way to decipher the serial #s stamped on the block or head to KNOW what year the engine was made?

to be thorough, my block is stamped 217342W

the head is 301480. at least i think theyre 0's, theyre square.

You have to cut it in half and count the rings. :rofl: :rofl:

Serial # makes sense to me, just not sure where you could look it up. Help this guy out Zilvians!! :D

Are you implying SR's grow on trees? I should go bury it in the back yard!! Next summer i'll have dozens of em!!!

heh.


BTW, the turbo's ID tag doesnt appear to have a date stamp either.

try to google it. I think I read on NICO somewhere that some guy did a write up on how to 'de-code' your serial numbers

I did search, but obviously not with the right credentials. I didnt even try "SR20DET serial"

hurr.

ah well. Thanks all. According to what I've learned Im pretty certain it's a 95.
