Default Re: 1969 Julian date code calendar

While we are on this subject, can someone please clarify
the whole Julian date code thing? What I want to really
know is how does the Julian date work against a model year?

Stated another way, if my Camaro's build date is 10-D-68
( 4th week of October, 1968 ), would the components correct
for my car have a 1968 Julian date, or a 1969 Julian date?
Or, does it not matter. For instance, the 7-blade fan
clutch uses a Julian date code I believe. I am confused
over the Julian date in relation to the assembly date for
my THM400 transmission. See the post on the CX coded
THM400: "395=Assembly day starting with January 1st,1968
which decodes as Friday January 30th,1969."

Can someone shed some light on how this all works?

Steve
