Oh, Man, that is a real bummer! I wish you the best in getting all this sorted out.
My garage houses a '73 MG Midget, a '66 Austin-Healey 3000, and a '69 Charger (original owner).
Several years ago I accidentally set fire to my Midget while trying to start it after a carb rebuild...
As I mentioned, I am the original owner and the engine has never been out of the car until I pulled it for rebuild. Makes no sense to me that a line worker at the factory would stamp something that means nothing. All the other parts of the stamp (E = 1969, 63 = 383 HP engine, 1 22 = Built on...

I have a similar question. I'm the original owner of a '69 Charger with 383 HP engine. The air cleaner has never had a decal that says "MAGNUM". From what I've been able to find out, the High Performance version of the 383 has 335 hp and is called the Magnum. Does Chrysler owe me a decal...
