Frame and engine numbers

[crazygaucho]

I'm in a roll today lol

 

still trying to figure out why my charging system doesn't work

 

encounter that on my 05 RSTD the frame and Vin number match but engine doesn't

 

are they suppose to match or not ?

The engine should match also. Looks like someone may have stuffed another motor in there. The engine will not have the entire VIN # stamped on it. Just the last 4 or 5 digits...

I have a 1300 factory crate engine installed in my '83. The numbers match the OEM, but the letter for the year is a 'G' indicating it's an '86 motor.
