is it your computer which is adding the commas to the engine numbers?

No, it's me! I have the greatest difficulty in reading six-figure and five-figure numbers. It helps to differentiate the last relevant digits, namely the six-figures. GM of Canada's Walkerville, later from 1935 Windsor, Transmission Plant used a similar numbering system to Flint Motor Plant in 1930, 1929 being a hotch-potch of sequences. After that Flint built so many engines that the sequences differed totally from Walkerville's until 1937 when with the new 216 engines, sequences were re-set again, and then confusion could arise again. Windsor re-set numbers in 1946, by the way.
