Cant quite remember what the letters where, either what model car they were found in, or year they where made.
the numbers Manual are 1, 3 and 5 Auto's are 2, 4 and 6 same case with the BEAMS engines -------------------- |

It is the manufacturing plant that your engine was built in. Mine is an A1 which was a series 1 wrc 3sgte out of the Tahara Plant if I remember correctly. Think I found the info on a quick google search.

probably not as important with the 3S-GTE, but more so with the 3rd Gen 3S-GE counterpart, where you have manual and auto versions and internal parts of the engine are different
