I just sold one of these. It is a 1942 and up replacement for a 1936 to 1941. I have owned a few of them over the years Jerry

That case has long ribs. Long ribs did not start until mid 1941.

On the subject; I have a 1945 FL left case mated to a 47 right case. Other than the belly numbers not matching is the 47 case a match to the 45 case or are there differences?

There is no difference between a right side 1945 and right side 1947 case.

As well as May 44 I’ve seen replacement left cases like that cast in March 46, September 46 and February 47. Sometimes they have a minor belly number and sometimes they don't. Here’s the Feb 47 case.
