Could be...but really no way to know because so much has been swapped in/out on N"s over the years. We have a 2N with an engine that has an 8N prefix and a lower number than yours...does that mean we have one of the last 2Ns made and they ran out of 9N engines? Possibly but probably not! Best I can say is crawl underneath your rearend and check the casting dates on each axle trumpet...if they are close to each other and slightly predate the engine number you MAY be able to assume that is what you have...if they are not close to the same date you really have no way to know because probably one of the trumpets has been changed and who knows which one is correct? Unfortunately unless you are able to track the service history of an N by purchasing it from a known 1st or 2nd owner, or you have some other outstanding feature that coincides with the engine serial number (ex: a real low serial number 9N block on a tractor with an aluminum hood, and dash, and I beam radius rods would make a real early 9N a safe assumption) Ns are darn hard to date.

In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
