Default Honda makes their motors a year before the car is released, right?

Hey guys I was just wondering. The motors that honda makes are made a year before they are put into the cars right? Like a motor printed as a 93 on the head will actually be a 94, correct?

are you serious? Are you the only owner? I doubt tehy would stamp the engine 92 even if the car was made so close to 92.

Car produced in 93, sold as a 94 car, motor has to be 93 since that was the year it was produced.

The date the car was manufactured is on a sticker on the drivers door jam. It gives the month and the year.
