Carburetor question

[azdriver]

So, would date on carburetor be close to build date of 3/14 or is December 67 dated carburetor close enough?

Thanks, Pat

7B is December 1967.
Should be just right.
GT500 carbs were installed at AO Smith.

   +1 "I" haven't seen an 81x or 82x date yet 83x would be too late as they appear on April cars.

I would add all GT500s started with an Autolite carb. Not all cars received the Holley carbs..

So AO Smith changed them out so the Autolite ones would just be a factory error on AO Smith's workers? Gary

A GT 500 could have either the Ford installed Autolite or the AOSmith installed Holley.

Both are correct. The reason why AOSmith did not change all the carburetors is most likely unavailability during production.
