Does anyone have a picture of a 2020 engine code? Last year of the GT350?

also looking for a 2015 code. Is it FA?

Post 120 is my 2020.

Post 120 is my 2020.

Interesting. I wonder if you got a 2019 motor. The code is the same as the 2019

MY2019 = REP 5.2L GT350R / KA 555 AA

From what I understand about the code 2001322013 would be:
First two digits(20)the year - 2020
Next three digits (013)day of the year - 13th of January
Next three digits (220) - Niche engine line? They all have 220
Last two digits (11) - 11th engine built that day

Messed that up my last two digits are 11!

2019 is the last revision. All 19 and 20s will be the same. Build date is different

Is this a gen 2 ?

 

[sox3]

No, Gen 2 should be KA. That was built Nov 12th, 2015, 7th engine that day

My 2016 GT350 has FA designation, but was built in 2016. I thought FA was only for the 2015 MY.

@Revan9 I got the same weird case.... (I am from Germany and was thinking about buying my first gt350) the owner sent me this picture...after I asked for it...

The weird thing is it's first car registration was in 2017, the engine was build (if I am right) on the 26th of October 2016 and the label says FA ....so a MY15?!?

How is this possible? @GT350-H6088 do you maybe have an idea?

Thank you so much guys ;)

(Sadly in Germany the gt350's are really expensive 🫣)

I beleive all engines from 15 to 18 are FA, 19 started the KA as the block was revised with changes.

 

[LaRone]

And what about GA & HA then???

I beleive all engines from 15 to 18 are FA, 19 started the KA as the block was revised with changes.
