I picked up the original motor out of the C15A the other day. The serial numbers match the number on the data plate. The build date on the data plate is April 21, 1944 and the build date on the motor is 10 29 43. That motor plant must have been making lots of engines by this time if they could sit for 6 months before being used. On my HUP there's only around 6 weeks difference or less if I remember right.
