small block starter date code help
Can someone help me decipher the date code on this starter?
The code is 1107293 followed by 9B7.
Also stamped on the housing are the words "Delco-Remy USA"
Many thanks to anyone that can help or direct me somewhere to find out.

9 is the year "9". B is the month, February (A=Jan., B=Feb. and so on) and 7 is the day.
SO....Feb. 7 of the year "9". Could be 59,69, 79, 89?. I don't have access to the part number, but that will tell you the year of application. Chuck

As for the year, You would not have to worry about being a decade off as the part number proceeding the date code changes
Hope this helps

I checked the Vette Vues 68-72 book and they don't show this part number for a Vette. All Vette starters part number started with 1108....
I guess it is another original Chevy application from 69.

Thanks
Thanks for all the help guys. Should I posting on one of the other forums
(like c2) to see if they have any idea what an 1107 goes with? Is there a website or book where I can look this stuff up?
