Picked up a '85 350x a couple weeks ago, while cleaning it up I found these markings written in white paint marker. Anyone know what they mean?

Front of engine: R360
under engine right side: FU60 or FV60
under engine left side: FV 413 or FL 413

I'll post pics when I figure out how. Trike came from AZ by way of SoCal.

This thing is a BEAST! Loving it!

Thanks!

Those are the markings the Honda technicians used when they assembled the motor. I have similar ones on my 86. I think there was a thread on here a while back that referenced it. I think the numbers are the the technicians ID numbers of either who worked on it, or that a specific procedure was completed.

Glad you are enjoying your 350X!

Yep,
All the 350x motors I've rebuilt had markings on them too. The odd thing is that you would think it would be in Japanese.
