The VIN derivative should be stamped on the passenger side, as shown in the top center view of this drawing. The second character is the model year.

DateCodes

The 1967 and 1968 vehicles received a year, month and day designator, Because the 3885010 casting was used in both 1966 and 1967, the case WITHOUT the year designator is the 1966 model.

DateCodes

The 1969-1974s received a year, month, day and ratio designator. Now you can tell what ratio the transmission had without looking inside. Its still a good habit to double check the gears to confirm the ratio because often times ratios were switched around.

Taken from 5speeds.com Muncie rebuild book.

My case does have the 3885010 casting number.Tail case number is 3846429. Then there is this number up by the bell housing 6K119489 i don't know which year this transmisson is still or what it came out of . All i know is it is a four speed with speedo on drivers side.
