Acceptable Date Coded Time Frame
Hello Fellow Enthusiasts; Recently purchased a 1964 Corvette Coupe in very original condition and original parts.
Engine stamping is F0511RD.....Flint May 11th 300 horsepower engine.
I need to purchase the correct date coded alternator.
What is the NCRS acceptable date code the alternator can be.....meaning..."How Close" to May 11th can the alternator be date coded to be accepted as "Correct"?!...Thanks!!!....Mark

Congrats. on your new purchase. My first Corvette was a 64 coupe back in 1973, white with black interior. My 65 coupe built April 10th has a March 8th ( 5 C 8 ) alt. and my 65 conv. built May 5th has a April 22nd (5 D 22 ) alt. Both are their "born with" alternators. Hope this helps.
