    C2 Master Cyl. Date Code?

    Members,
    I looking for information to interpret the date code on a Bendix 2225032 master cylinder. The numbers that appear in the bottom are 8-5. Does this mean that it was cast in August, 1965 or is the date code more complicated than this?

    As always, all replies are appreciated.

    Regards,
    Gene

    I suspect it's Julian dating

    One of mine is "070", another is "183" but the latter is on a Bendix casting 618967 (not 2225032), so it may not be original, in spite of the Julian date (approx July 4th) being within a month of other castings (Aug, Sept 1964) on this car.

      Wayne,
      Thank you for your reply. I've owned my '65 since 1970 but I can't be certain that a previous owner did not replace the master cylinder. My car came off the line on March 3 or 4.

      For now, I think that I'm going to put the 8-5 MC back on the car. Perhaps I can learn more about Bendix date codes when Carlisle rolls around.

      Best regards,
      Gene
