How to decode a 727 transmission?

I know this topic is old.. But I decoded a transmission and I didnt see any indicator for the J that was after my first set of numbers..

PK2801543J 2247 0568

Chrysler 67-68 8 383 2bc
Dodge 67-68 8 383 2bc
Plymouth 67-68 8 383 2bc
Day 2247 is Friday, September 22, 1967
Day 0568 is Saturday, February 16, 1963?
 
This list only goes back to 65. Is there a similar list for earlier 727s?
 
Does anyone know the stamping for a max wedge trans?
1963 - 1964 B body 426 2-4bbls Max. Perf. the part number on the trans should be 2464426. I don't know if it would be proceeded by PK or not so could be PK2464426. I can't help with the date code, the next 4 digits, for a '62 built trans., and the sequence number, the last 4 digits, could be anything. This isn't a whole lot of help but at least it gives you a part number.
 
I just bought a original transmission for my 1966 Coronet 500 Hemi. I know the part number is correct as H2538389. What I am not clear on is the next set of numbers right after the part number in the same stamping size 239357. It doesn't seem to follow the 10,000 day calendar?

@R/T Boy 67 you gave my post a red x, I'm wondering what's wrong with it, so that I know for future use and so that I can make a notation in my books if they're wrong.
 
Sorry, it was fat finger syndrome, but while I am here I will shed some light on your question. The number after the part number has a digit missing. It should be seven digits long on pre 68 transmissions. It is not a 10,000 day calendar date, which started in 1968. It is a sequential serial number. I have a photo of a 1962 trans that has number 0000007. Sorry again for the red X. I might get one myself, as some people don't agree with me on the pre 68 numbering system.
 
It looks like I answered the wrong person, but the same reply stands for thr red X. Sorry.
No problem and good information to have. I think you can go in and edit the red X if you want to. I hope no one will red X you for the info that you put up here, even if they don't agree they can put their information up here also it might help someone in the future.
 
Done! I thought you could only undo the rating within the first few minutes of giving it. Thanks for pointing that out. Too old and not enough coffee.
 
You're not alone in that, I don't drink coffee anymore but the age thing is catching up to me quick.
