Default 289 Date Codes

Ok, new 68 T5 Mustang owner here. I've done engine spec research and figured out how to read my date code..... First number is year, then a letter is the month of that year, then second number is the day of the month..... Mine is "5B10S". I.e. Build date is Feb 10 of either 65 or 75.

What does the "S" mean?

Help wanted, thanks much!
