Thanks for the info. It does indeed fall within that range (251868).

Thinkin out loud here so bare with me...and comments or observations are welcome.....

With the info you have on your database the indication further supports my trans being the correct piece. Not sure how or why the VIN stamp was overlooked on some cars... strange.

I am going to say that my RR was built on 4/26 +/- a day based on your info - it would seem reasonable to conclude that a trans with a 2818 assy date would be earmarked for a vehicle with a SPD between 4/22 and 4/30 - so I put mine squarely in the middle.

The driveline part dates further support this. If my car had been built on its actual SPD of 4/16, the trans would more than likely have had an assy number in the 2808 to 2810 range.

2817 833 with 4/22 SPD from your records

2818 833 with 4/16 SPD My car... possibly data plate stamped wrong and should have been an SPD of 4/26 or was late build and given a trans that was assembled and slated for a later SPD car - more than likely the latter

2819 833 with 4/30 SPD from your records
