Your trans. pad stamp doesn't come across to me as being authentic.
Lots of abnormalities within it,the most obvious being the flat top number 3 used on the engine pad does not appear to be the same one used on the trans. pad. They should match. |

There have been a lot of comments regarding the transmission stampings. However, not many comments regarding the engine stamps which I'm sure you will all agree are the most critical and important. Any thoughts on the engine pad stampings?
Thanks |

That engine pad looks OK to me.

[/ QUOTE ] The flat top 3 on the VIN derivative looks questionable on the pad, I have only seen round tops |

I've seen both fonts used,but that wasn't my point.
They should both match eachother,regardless. |

[/ QUOTE ] I used to believe that. I've found several original cars, including 327 cars, where the stamps did not match. These were Camaros, but obviously the same process could be in place at WRN. Pad is fine - compared it to a fourth really close stamp.
