What does early mid and late mean on these carbs? On the Camaro Research group site they have:
early- 7037202
mid---7037212
late---7037218
My car was built in mid December of 1966

Not sure. This is a quote from CRG's website:
--- Quote ---The "early", "mid" and "late" indications in parentheses are relative. A carburetor change could have occurred fairly early in production, so "early" could mean only a few weeks or months into production and "late" would mean anything after that. Or the change may have occurred near the end of model year. If you are looking for a carburetor for an application with multiple versions, don't go by the I.D. number, but by the date of the carburetor.

Don't know if that helps any.

Just trying to understand the numbers.
Since my car was completely built in mid December of 1966 with California emissions and auto. tranny, wouldn't the numbers look something like this?
703651_ (last number being even for Auto. tranny)
703- 1960's with a.i.r.
6 - year produced
5 -Quadrajet (4 bbl) California standards
?? - even number representing auto tranny
I just started trying to figure this out yesterday and obviously you guys are the experts so please forgive me if I appear dense.

Here is an example and we are talking about 7037212.
703- 1960's with A.I.R (California Only Smog equipment)
7- 1967
2- Quadrajet
1- Chevrolet
2- Automatic Transmission
That is a general breakdown of the stamped number. Note, this is not the BEST way to breakdown the stamped number or tell what originally came on your car. There are manuals that will give you carb # and application to vehicle. So, the 7037212 is the correct carb for your application.
