"concours class" is more about the car being correct as it was built.

I dont see any problem in sourcing a correct date code block if concours is important. Find one around 30 to a maximum of 60 days prior to the completion date of your car. Have a look at some date codes on your sheetmetal. This'll give a guide.

I should clarify, there is nothing wrong with sourcing a date-correct block. But there is something shady about stamping serial numbers on it so it looks like it was the original block that came with the car.
