67 Powerglide
Looking for a little help. I'm trying to verify that the powerglide in my 67 427/390 has is original to the car... The stamping on the right side transmission pan says "Y5H 24N". This doesn't seem to match the nomenclature described in the NCRS Technical manual. Could this indicate that I have a replacement transmission? Is there any other way to verify its originality? Thanks in advance for the help.

Y = Toledo (TH350) 5 = 1975 ('85?) H = June 24 = 24th day N = night shift
Pan differences shown below. Note that only p/glide has 14 machine screws for pan attachment.

its May 27th, 1967. I forget what the T and D is for one is the location of the plant and the other is the shift I think. this is from a 427/390 built in June of 67

That would decode to August 24 1965. So the pan is not original to your car. But there is no id marks on the trans it self.

Sounds like a replacement pan and/or trans.
I clearly remember replacing the trans pan on my 69 AMX after wife ran over a parking pediment..........so it does happen.
