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
