JR is the code for a 63 401 2bbl engine. I think this was the 9 to 1 compression engine. 4J4014442 decodes as: 4 for 4 series Lesabre, J for 1963, 4 for the Kansas City, Kansas assembly plant, and 014442 for the # of the car in the make.
Production Code on my motor is JR466, Serial # is 4J40 I4442. Motor has 2bbl Rochester. This motor is in a 60 Lesabre Convert, which I just purchased. I think this motor is a 63 401? Can anyone verify?

Thanks so much for your help---and I thought I had a 364!
