1985 350X production numbers

[350x'inNY]

Got a parts manual on CD for my 350X. Was a surprise gift! Thanks again!

Anyhow, it lists some production/frame/engine data.

1985 Engine Serial Numbers....
TE08E-5000042 to TEO8E-5025557

Ok... math time! 25557-42 = 25,515 engines

1985 Frame Serial Numbers....
TE080-FM000032 to TE080-FM025531

From that, we get 25531-32 = 25,499 frames

Unfortunately, it doesn't give the end production numbers for the 86, but there were different frames listed as they 'modified' the design during production. The last frame number is after GM108441. So if you want the frame with the extra gussets, get one after this.

Flipping through the manual, I see different part numbers for different changes in the 86.... I'll look and see what the 'largest' number is, so we have an 'at least' number. Anyone else know??? Anyone buy a 86 350X right at the end??

Actually..... why don't you guys that bought crate motors look at your engine serial numbers..... these should have been the last 350X's produced in 86.
