Need a little help understanding Oct-Dec '64 distributor date codes.
My review of Tony Gregory's 'The High Performance Mustang' and Bob Mannel's 'Mustang & Ford Small Block V-8' has only further confused me.
Bob's book, p5-40(d), shows a C5OF-12127-E FOMOCO bearing '4LE' date code (Nov'64 5th wk).
A friend has recently shown me two of his distributors both C5OF-12127-E FOMOCOs. The first bears date code '4MB'(Dec'64 2d wk).
The third distributor has me confused,it clearly bears date code '5KB'. Any ideas? An Oct '64 should bear date code '4Kx' and these reference manuals do not list 'K' as a date code month for calendar year 1965. It doesn't look peened or re-stamped.
Thanks
