A Century part number consists only of digits and is in the form of“x-xxxxxx-xx”. Extract the middle six digits from that part number and enter it into our search engine for an exact result. A motor model number of any of these varieties can be entered into INYO's product search engine and an exact match can be found. From 1963 a letter and number code is used at the end of the engine number to denote the month and year of manufacture. The letter indicates the month and the number the year of manufacture, i.e. A3 = January 1963, B3 = February 1963, etc., and M3 = December 1963 (the letter L is not used in this code sequence).

U.S. Engine Codes

Appendix 2

This appendix contains information on identifying 1935-1964 U.S. built cars, 1951-1966 U.S. built engines, 1935-1964 Canadian built cars, and 1951-1963 Canadian built engines. I have provided some examples showing how to decode Canadian cars and engines.

U.S. Buick Car Serial Numbers (VIN) 1935-1953

Information on U.S. car serial numbers can be found in 'The Buick, A Complete History' (ref. 4) and the 'Standard Catalog of Buick 1903-2004' (ref. 5). For 1935 and 1936 the serial number is seven digits. For 1937-1953, the serial number consists of eight digits as follows:

1st digit is the assembly plant:
1 = Flint, MI
2 = South Gate, CA
3 = Linden, NJ
4 = Kansas City, KS
5 = Wilmington, DE
6 = Atlanta, GA
7 = Framingham, MA

Last seven digits are the sequential production number unique to that particular car.

U.S. Buick Car Serial Numbers (VIN) 1954-1964

Information on U.S. car and engine serial numbers can be found in the 'Catalog of American Car ID Numbers 1950-59' (ref. 6) and the 'Catalog of American Car ID Numbers 1960-69' (ref. 7). The car serial number or VIN used by Buick has the same basic format for 1954-1964. The serial number consists of nine digits.

1st digit is the car series:
0 = Special V8 (4000)
A = Special V6 (4000)

1 = Special Deluxe V8 (4100)
B = Special Deluxe V6 (4100)
3 = Skylark V8 (4300), Sportwagon Custom (4300), or Sportwagon standard (4200)
C = Skylark V6 (4300)
4 = Special (40) or LeSabre (4400)
5 = Super (50)
6 = Century (60), Invicta (4600), or Wildcat (4600)
7 =Roadmaster (70 or 75), Electra (4700), or Riviera (4700)
8 = Limited (700), or Electra 225 (4800)
2nd digit is the model year:
A = 1954
D = 1957
G = 1960
J = 1963
M = 1966
B = 1955
E = 1958
H = 1961
K = 1964

C = 1956
F = 1959

I = 1962
L = 1965
3rd digit is the assembly plant code: 1 = Flint, MI
2 = South Gate, CA
3 = Linden, NJ or Fremont, CA (1964)
4 = Kansas City, KS
5 = Wilmington, DE
6 = Atlanta, GA
7 = Framingham, MA or Baltimore, MD (1964)
8 = Arlington, TX or Kansas City, MO (1964)
Last six digits are the sequential production number unique to that particular car: starting at 001001 for each plant for 1954-1963 fullsize cars, all 1964 cars
starting at 501001 for 1961-1963 Special/Skylark

U.S. Buick Engine Serial Numbers 1935-1966

For 1935-1956 U.S. built engines, the engine serial number is different than the car serial number (VIN). For 1935-1941 the first digit of the engine serial number indicates the car series and for 1942-1956 the last digit of the engine serial number indicates the car series (4=Special, 5=Super, 6=Century, 7=Roadmaster, 8=Roadmaster or Limited, 9 Limited). For 1957-1964 U.S. built engines, the car serial number (VIN) and engine serial number are the same. For 1965-1966 U.S. built engines, the engine serial number is the same as the last eight digits of the car's serial number (VIN).

On 1936-1952 I8 320 engines, the engine serial number is stamped on a machined surface on the right side (passenger side in U.S./Canada) of the cylinder bank to the rear of the distributor. On 1951-1953 I8 263 engines, the engine serial number is stamped on a machined surface on the right side of the cylinder bank in front of the distributor (similar for 1935-1950 small series engines). On 1953-1956 V8 264 and V8 322 engines, the engine serial number is stamped on a machined surface on the top outer edge of the left (driver side in U.S./Canada) cylinder bank, between the middle branches of the exhaust manifold. On 1951-1956 engines, a ¼' long dash (-) after the engine serial number indicates a 0.010' oversize cylinder bore engine.

On 1957-1966 V8 364, 401, and 425 engines, the engine serial number is stamped on the left side (driver side in U.S./Canada) of the engine on the top of the engine block just in front of the valley pan. On 1957-1966 U.S. built V8 364, 401, and 425 engines, the engine production code is stamped upside down on the right side (passenger side in U.S./Canada) of the engine on the top of the engine block just in front of the valley pan. Table A2-1 list the U.S. engine production codes for all 1959-1966 U.S. built engines (ref. 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9). On 1957-1961 U.S. built engines, a ¼' long dash (-) after the engine production code indicates a 0.010' oversize cylinder bore engine. For U.S. built engines in 1957-1958, a stamped letter X before the production code indicates a series 50-60-70-75-700 engine equipped with 9.5:1 compression ratio pistons instead of the standard 10.0:1 compression ratio pistons.

On 1961-1963 V8 215 engines, the engine serial number is stamped on the engine forward of the right (passenger side in U.S./Canada) cylinder head and the production code number is stamped upside down next to the engine serial number.

On 1962-1963 V6 198 engines, the engine serial number is stamped on the engine forward of the right (passenger side in U.S./Canada) cylinder head and the engine production number is stamped on the front of the block below the left (driver side in U.S./Canada) cylinder head. On the 1964-1966 V6 225 engines, the engine serial number is stamped on the left (driver side in U.S./Canada) front face of the crankcase, just below the head gasket and the production code number is stamped on the crankcase between the front and middle branches of the right (passenger side in U.S./Canada) exhaust manifold. On cars with power steering it will be necessary to remove the power steering pump bracket to view the complete engine serial number.

On 1964-1966 V8 300 engines and 1966 V8 340 engines, the engine serial number is stamped on the left (driver side in U.S./Canada) front face of the crankcase, just below the valve cover and the production code number is stamped on the right side (passenger side in U.S./Canada) of the crankcase and can be viewed between the middle branches of the right exhaust manifold. On cars with power steering it will be necessary to remove the power steering pump bracket to view the complete engine serial number.
