64 engine code question
Please help me understand the difference between the RE and RT codes for 64
RE = 327-cid 365-hp V-8 with 11.0:1 compression ratio, manual transmission or special high-performance manual transmission, and four-barrel carburetor
RT = 327-cid 365-hp V-8 with 11.0:1 compression ratio, manual transmission, and four-barrel carburetor
RE and RT are both the same except for one transmission option available with RE? I suppose then I have to check the trans code for VIN and type?
I'm planning to look at a 365 HP 64 in the next couple days and this could be a key factor in making an offer.
Thanks,

Oh, very nice. Thanks.
One car I am about to go see is supposed to be a RT car then. Any advice on what to look for besides the stamp pad? Details please...

Look for the T.I. parts and if in working order. The system can cost a bunch of $$ to replace if missing or not working.
