Transmission date?

I have a th400 transmission out of my 72 and today I found a small plate on the side with

391 at very top
71CA 25146 at bottom

Anyway to trace the manufacturer date etc on these? Or maybe I should look somewhere else for a code stamped?

My engine is a 72 350 so I am hoping I have an original transmission too.

Just went though this on here because a 68 i bought has the plate on the side. Someone else who can decode better will chime in.

Still planning to check for the VIN stampings for you. It's on my list. Probably next week Tim.
