On my '65 I have the expected 113-101-373 stamped on both heads, but the LH also has vw 23 stamped below that number, whilst the RH has vw 7 stamped below it.
Do we know what the 23 and 7 mean? _________________ UK. RHD 65 Type 1 (Guernsey import).
Stock. But now converted to 12V (as a temporary measure before eventually reverting back to 6V after intended full restoration) |

I think it may be the mold number _________________ Aust. RHD 66 Type 1

Thanks 66brm. I thought it might've been a weird handed code at first. _________________ UK. RHD 65 Type 1 (Guernsey import).
