Here you go Mudhen,

Tail Codes for other units

HMH-461 - CJ
HMT-301 - SU
VF-32 - AC
VMAQ-1 - CB
VMFA-122 - DC
VMFA(AW)-242 - DT

According to http://www.anft.net/f-14/f14-serial-13.htm 161434 was with VF-101 by 2/1999 (Ex AC-100 VF-32)

160435 was very probably a mis pole

Many thanks weazel69. I was on a Midland Aviation tour, so we were on our way to California, so only a brief stop. Any help with codes or the second Prowler serial would be great.
