I was just given this motor. it was a warranty replacement as they said it had a bad camshaft. I have no idea of what year it may be. With it being a warranty covered engine I would think it is fairly new as it came out of one of our Police Cars.
maybe the dealer could track it by the "P" 3#. Although, I think the engine is misplaced and belongs here with me 'cause it has my birth year there...1957.
LOL.. I wil ltry calling them and see what they say. This is for a future replacement for the 496 nitrous motor in my car. Plans are cam, lifters, rods and pistons with a 6.1 crank and use my fast system with this massive 96mm turbo I have. It will be studed with the good hellcat headgaskets..
I think the P number is the part number for the engine... The build date should be coded in the number above it....
None of the replacement engine I have done at the dealer have come with valve covers or an intake manifold. So I'll bet those came from the original engine. At least the valve covers did. Warranty replacement engines MUST have a new intake manifold installed. Nice score for you though!
yes confirmed by the dealer through the performance catalog to be a 2015. He did look up the repair order and the motor has 43k miles on it. was in a police car and has a bad cam...
This is how to decode the engine serial number TNX- Traceability Code E6- Saltillo, Mexico Engine Plant 166 - Julian Date code - 166th day (June 15). 5 - year, 2015 10659 - engine serial number 957PA – last 5 digits of the engine part number. 5.7 – Displacement in liters P53021957PA– Chrysler production engine part number Jim
