Q: Engine ID code?

[dhavi4226]

So here's a question or rather a survey if you'd indulge me. The 8th digit is the engine ID. X is supposed to be Windsor and W is Romeo.
I'd like to know by VIN if anyone else has a Romeo with an X. For a quick reference go by the following.
Romeo=11 rocker cover bolts
Windsor= 13 or 14.

Thanks for the reply. Mine is a Romeo as well with an X. From the few responses I've gotten on other sites, seems like regardless of whether you have an X that should indicate Windsor you may have a Romeo anyway which should be a W code. Apparently 96,7 & 8 could be MUTTS so to speak. Here is some interesting info on the subject if anyone cares to look through it.
