Stop in for a cup of coffee

If the book is accurate. Sure. It’s also not uncommon in the 1958-1965 period for transmission AND engines to have markings that are documented correctly. For example, it is possible to have a “max wedge” casting number on the side of a 413. But that doesn’t mean it was a max wedge engine. They were two series of molds that used the same casting numbers. The difference is that all TRUE MAX WEDGE 413s had an AAQA on the front of the block, where the other mold that shared the same casting number did not.

pre-1966 is very difficult to fully document accurately

Thanks Chris

Yes, I've noticed that 67 and up there's some pretty good sources and records but the early As are much more mysterious.
