Default Panhead VIN Number with stars on each end

I have a 62 pan. The VIN on the engine has stars on each end star62FL####star. Does anyone know what that means. I can not find anything on it.

Thanks

Interesting. I used to have a 52 and it was 52FLXXXX, like yours, but I don't recall any stars.

Well the numbers/letters you show are good so I am thinking maybe MoCo assigned numbers on replacement cases? Have you looked at the lower belly numbers?

Harley used stars in 84 in the old VIN location, when they moved the VIN...they look the same.
