Correct carb date

Is 4053 Holley dated 8B3 to early for an engine with assembly date of 0307 of 69?

that is almost 13months apart Feb 3, 1968 for the carb and March 3 1969 for the engine. Most I have seen are around 90 days or so. My engine assembly date is Aug. 21, 1968 and the earliest dated part I have found so for is F24 8 which is June 24 1968 which is less than 90 days. So unless someone here smarter than me replys then I would have to say that the answer to your question is yes it is too early.
