I am uncertain about an engine build date, but my 1C Judge's heads/intake are Oct. '68, block and the 941 distributor are Nov. '68. The 28273 carb is Dec. '68, and the alternator is Jan. 3, '69--just prior to the car's assembly. I still believe items installed at the build plant are often dated closer to the car's assembly date. But I assume you have seen the opposite, Keith.
