Here is all the info on my #s matching motor and I have the dealer invoice that is dated 4-29-69 so I think that puts the car at Ground Zero for the actual date of being built on approximately 4-26

WM23M9A263554
Order # 924487
4/26

Motor
cast 2/19/69
assembled 3/19/69, HP only No HP2

Carbs
front- 101 day 69, April 11
center-93 day 69, April 3
rear-93 day 69, April 3

Distributor
7th week 69, late Feb 69

My guess of the engine assembly date is for only the reciprocating assembly, I believe carb and manifold were added after engine assembly date, most probably due to Edelbrocks slow delivery of the manifolds
