Yes, for example 2699 = 269th day of '69 = Friday, 9/26/69. Carb foot should be stamped "J 9".
The 2 digit number represents the last 2 digits of the Chrysler part # 3418 525 4742S front all & 3418 523 4745S rear 4-spd.

Most components are "dated" when they are final assembled (the parts not the car).

WAG: Carter AFB carb
The foot is stamped with the date & part number per CARTER's in-house spec..
The tag (with partial part number/carb number/date) is added (at Carter) per customer Chrysler Corp's spec..

The 365 day date will ALWAYS be within the same month as the letter code(month) on the "foot" stamped date on each carb.
