Can anyone help me decipher these numbers?

Ive got either an M20 or M21 transmission off of a w31 that im going to put on my 70 w30. There are 3 numbers on it. I know that one (30M323388) relates to the car but the other two are 1) P0D07B and 2) 3925661. Can anyone tell me what these numbers mean and if its a M20 or 21?


Thanks

The "B" at the end indicates an M21. An M20 would be an "A".

P0D07B - 0 is 1970, D is April, 07 is the day.

3925661 indicates a 1970-74 unit.

I believe the B in PODO7B means M 21.

Wow thank you so much! Just found out this is perfect for my car as my car was built the 3rd week in April 70. Great news.
