Hi Richard, what help are you wanting? The number you have recorded does not look quite right to me are you sure it is correct.

Re: 650 G12
That engine number doesn't fit the sequence used by AMC, so perhaps there is a typo somewhere.
Should start G12CS or G12CSR. I've never seen G12CR on an AMC engine
Earlier engines, up to around 1961 start with the year, eg 61/G12CSR
Sometime in 1962 the factory drops the year stamp and engines start G12/CSR etc
The X on the twin engine numbers starts to appear around 1959. I don't know what the X stands for.
By 1965/66 the last twin engines still had the X and the engine numbers reached 5 digits, but start 10.
X19522 is a far higher number than any known AMC twin engine or anything in the records.
