    revhead got a reaction from Dok in chassis number confusion

      All Falcons up to January 1971 had a dual numbering system, consisting of both the Body Prefix Number and VIN (Vehicle Identification Number). The VIN was stamped on the passenger side support panel, and this should match the number stamped on the I.D. plate (which was attached to the drivers side pre January 1970, and on the bulkhead for the remainder of 1970). As of January 1971 Ford switched to using a 3 way identification system, the body prefix and serial number as located on the ID plate should be the same as on the engine and shock tower.   The body prefix number should be 6 characters in length, consisting of 2 letters, then 2 numbers, followed by another 2 letters.    Letter 1:   The first letter in the body prefix identifies the country, with "J" identifying Australia   Letter 2:   The next letter in the body prefix identifies the assembly plant, with "G" identifying Broadmeadows   Numbers 3 and 4:   The following 2 numbers identify the model   COUNTRY ASSEMBLY PLANT MODEL ID MODEL   J G 11 Futura Sedan J G 12 Futura Taxi J G 21 Falcon Sedan J G 22 Falcon Taxi J G 23 Falcon 500 Sedan J G 24 Falcon 500 Taxi J G 30 Falcon Wagon J G 31 Falcon 500 Wagon J G 32 Fairmont GXL J G 33 Falcon GT Sedan J G 34 Fairmont Sedan J G 35 Fairmont Wagon J G 36 Fairlane Custom J G 37 Fairlane 500 J G 38 Fairlane Custom Taxi J G 39 Fairlane 500 Taxi J G 40 Falcon Utility J G 41 Falcon 500 Utility J G 42 Falcon Van J G 43 Falcon 4WD Utility J G 45 Falcon 500 Van J G 47 Falcon Sundowner Van J G 62 Galaxie Sedan J G 63 Fairlane Marquis J G 64 Fairlane Ghia J G 65 Falcon 500 Coupe J G 66 Falcon GT Coupe J G 67 Fairmont Coupe J G 70 Landau Hardtop J G 71 LTD   Letters 5 and 6:   The next letters in the body prefix identify the year and month of manufacture, as per the table below:   YEAR CODE JAN FEB MAR APR MAY JUN JUL AUG SEP OCT NOV DEC   1965 E J U M P B R A G C K D E 1966 F L Y S T J U M P B R A G 1967 G C K D E L Y S T J U M P 1968 H B R A G C K D E L Y S T 1969 J J U M P B R A G C K D E   1970 K L Y S T J U M P B R A G 1971 L C K D E L Y S T J U M P 1972 M B R A G C K D E L Y S T 1973 N J U M P B R A G C K D E 1974 P L Y S T J U M P B R A G 1975 R C K D E L Y S T J U M P 1976 S B R A G C K D E L Y S T 1977 T J U M P B R A G C K D E 1978 U L Y S T J U M P B R A G 1979 W C K D E L Y S T J U M P   1980 X B R A G C K D E L Y S T 1981 Y J U M P B R A G C K D E 1982 A L Y S T J U M P B R A G 1983 B C K D E L Y S T J U M P 1984 C B R A G C K D E L Y S T 1985 F J U M P B R A G C K D E 1986 G L Y S T J U M P B R A G 1987 H C K D E L Y S T J U M P 1988 J B R A G C K D E L Y S T 1989 K J U M P B R A G C K D E   1990 L L Y S T J U M P B R A G 1991 M C K D E L Y S T J U M P 1992 N B R A G C K D E L Y S T 1993 P J U M P B R A G C K D E 1994 R L Y S T J U M P B R A G 1995 S C K D E L Y S T J U M P 1996 T B R A G C K D E L Y S T 1997 V J U M P B R A G C K D E 1998 W L Y S T J U M P B R A G 1999 X C K D E L Y S T J U M P   2000 Y B R A G C K D E L Y S T 2001 1 J U M P B R A G C K D E 2002 2 L Y S T J U M P B R A G 2003 3 C K D E L Y S T J U M P 2004 4 B R A G C K D E L Y S T     TRANSMISSION CODES B 3 Speed Cruisomatic J 3 Speed Manual, Column Shift, Partial Synchro L 4 Speed Manual, Floor Shirt, All Synchro N 3 Speed Manual, Column Shift, All Synchro O 3 Speed Cruisomatic, T-Bar Floor Shift (XT GT Only) P 3 Speed Fordomatic, Column Shift R 3 Speed Cruisomatic, Column Shift     MODEL ENGINE CODE ENGINE XR Falcon C 170ci Six (Low Compression)   E 170ci Pursuit Six   G 200ci Super Pursuit Six   I 289ci Windsor V8 2V   K 289ci Windsor V8 4V   XT Falcon B 188ci Six   Q 188ci Six (Low Compression)   S 221ci Six   U 221ci Six (Low Compression)   W 302ci Mustang 5 Litre V8 4V   Y 302ci Mustang 5 Litre V8 2V   XW Falcon B 188ci Six   H 351ci V8 4V HO   Q 188ci Six (Low Compression)   S 221ci Six   T 351ci V8 4V   U 221ci Six (Low Compression)   Y 302ci V8 2V   XY Falcon E 200ci Six (Low Compression)   G 200ci Six   H 351ci V8 4V HO   J 250ci Six (Low Compression)   K 351ci V8 2V   L 250ci Six 1V   M 250ci Six 2V   T 351ci V8 4V   Y 302ci V8 2V   XA -

    Thing is, before I put all this running gear in my ea, it ran perfectly, in the eb xr6 it was in now its in my ea, it's rich as, like 40 litres to do 20 ks,

    Thing is I have no specs when I bought my running gear, except a load of shit, told to me by the seller, also I don't have $400 to pay them for their tune, on top of paying $400 already, I might have a mate who will put his tune onto my chip

    The way I interpreted it is that you need the J3 to remove feature the EL computer runs that you don’t need on earlier cars. But hey, I don’t own an E series, so I clearly interpreted that wrong. 
    Yes I read the information correctly. 
     

    @revhead I believe if you buy the chip and tuner as a package they send you a blank chip to write your own tune. 
     
    Mine came with the tune loaded to suit the engine specs I had given. Obviously they can’t get it 100% without having it on a dyno or a way to log the AFRs.

    I bought a j3 chip n programme for my EA, cost me $400, after I fitted it to my el ecu, it started n I can drive it, however when I msg ti performance, they said chip was sent with no tune, wtf did I pay for, I msgd them a Jason bolger emailed me back, I explained what had happened, he basically told me I need to buy a tune n download it myself, ffs
    I couldn't make head nor tales of his emails actually,

    Bigger brakes more easily, better handling and no modifications to sump/swaybar/crossmember for the barra
