Can someone identify my engine casting #? I can't seem to find any reference to my sequence and want to know if it's at least date-matched. Here it is: PT225R22430823 I have triple checked the numbers but can't seem to identify this particular casting. Any help is appreciated. The engine is in a 68 Barracuda.

PT = plant code: Trenton
225 =CID
2243 = julian date
0823 = daily sequential number

Hmm.... the julian date should be a 7 digit number , i think.
However, this is from the "Catalog of American Car ID Numbers 1960-692

It's actually based on Chrysler's 10,000 day calender system...

See here for a plug the number and see what comes out webpage...
