A 283xxx I would think would be an April/May build. A 4/69 would be fine, but as John said do you have a date on the k frame or motor which is a good reference date.

My car is an all #'s car, but I never paid attention to the dates on the Kmember, engine block, etc.
My block cast is 5-15-69, so I should be good to go.
How do I find the engine assembly date?
The major components missing were the exhaust manifolds, distributor and H-Wheels.
All I need now is a distributor or tag.
Thanks
Assembly date is on the engine ID tag , I'm curious to see what it is compared to your casting date .

agree with the late May+ possible build date with that VIN, my A12 with a 270xxx VIN is a May 7-9 assembly as close as I know...

My engine was cast 05-15-69, assembled 06-04-69, vin 272929. Exhaust manifolds are dated 05-23 and 05-25. Car was probably built during the 2nd or 3rd weeks of June. The door panels are also dated in the 05-23 range. It has been a while since I had it apart and didn't record dates from the panels.
