Question about new-for-1972 VIN coding
I’m trying to determine GM’s rationale for adding the engine code to the VIN sequence beginning in 1972. While I believe it was used to simplify the way insurance rates were determined/assessed for a given vehicle, I’m hoping to find something concrete from GM or a known-reliable source.
Might anyone have anything they can share? |

From my google search I believe it is related to the Society of Automotive Engineers, in particular SAE J273A. Havent been able to dig up the details yet but found the link below.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
