Help VIN decode

[Sparky1000]

I have a 1980 CJ7 . I have been trying to find out what engine was in it. The VIN is J0M93EB047423. I think the B is the engine code, but for that year the decoders I can find doesn't have a B.

I had the same problem with the B code, the vin decoders on-line are missing this code. If you look at the 81 vin code, B will show up as a GM 151 -4 cylinder. Which correct for the 80 also. Not sure why the decoders are missing the code but maybe because the 4 cylinder was reintroduced in 80. The only decoder I have found that is correct is Planethoustonamx.com

'80 engine code B is GM 151 Cubic In 2BbL, your GVW rating is 4150
The correct '80 engine codes
A = AMC 258 i6 / 4.2l 1 Bbl
B = GM 151 2 Bbl
C = AMC 258 i6 / 4.2l 2 Bbl
H = AMC 304 2 Bbl
N = 360 2 Bbl
