engine ID

Post by DocGraphics »

I was just posting IAP's model Id chart in another post & was looking at the designation for my 78 & it specs 132A1.040.5 but my plaque in the engine bay say 132A1.040.6
Does anyone know what (if any) difference there is with the ".5" & ".6" rev engine code???

I have noticed this before & that the ".6" rev is not mentioned in any of the charts.

I have a plate in the engine bay that says "enigne 132A1.040.6" - can find reference to 132A1.040.5, but not a 132A1.040.6? Anybody know what the .6 is about? :?
