Thanks again guys. Richard, that one sems to be missing the last digit 328027x
I also have your name down against 901/06 3080xxx 10743 that just so happens to be the preceeding build #.

Apologies Dave. It's

3280327

It's a really coincidence that I came across two sequential engines.
From 3280327 I will get you the case matching number later. Currently it's covered by the fan shroud.

Sure it is!

See if you can get the serial # for the other engine too, please.
I appreciate all pairing #'s when it is possible to see them.
It is also nice to get the casting dates from the block.
For the aluminum case engines, this set of 5 numbers can be really useful. For the magnesium engines, the sixth number to collect would be the left & right case part # end digits (like the 7R case, however in some cases one might find a 5R & 7R type of matching).

Thanks Richard. Thanks Andy. Can we get casting dates from as many engines as possible please.
I added a couple as well. That give us a total of 192 build #s so far.
