YF12A:

    Hello and thanks all,

To 429bbf, thanks, the GTO was a 72 Ram Air 455 HO M-22, loved that whine. My buddy at the time said the original was no longer available but he could get me a better carb. As I am remembering, he put the carb in a lesser value leftover carb box to lower the price.

To Ethan1, thanks,  I am remembering more and a later HiPo carb is what I think my friend said, but don't know where he is now.

Obvious question is what is this worth as from past parts experience with Ram Air, HO and older Tripower stuff, 455 SD parts were never easy or cheap to come by even back then and how does being a service carb affect this? Thanks again.

Cliff Ruggles:
The 17054910 is a SR for the Pontiac SD 455's.  They are really nice carbs, and somewhat valuable, but no where near what an original dated unit would be.

They are among the few Q-jets made before 1975 that had the larger primary bores, dubbed as "800" cfm units......Cliff
