After March, the span increases. Must have added capacity.

Norwood: V0203DZ-V0213DZ
Van Nuys: V0203DZ-V0206DZ

For the most part, engine dates increment with VINs.

Castings vary, no FIFO. Mid-January to early February for later engines.
Thanks William. I know Lloyds 02B has an 0206 DZ. Would you consider 0130 to be a good date or would that be too early? Seems like a week earlier is plausible, but I haven't seen any examples. Mine is a Norwood car.
