 Can you please post a pic of the stamping?

 Could it be 17059650? Please recheck.

 Oh, 17059530. Not 17059560.

 According to my manual:

 17059530 was used for '79 Cadillac Fleetwood, Brougham, and DeVille V8 425cid w/ A/T California. :)

 0749- 74th Day of 1979

Your right
After zooming in on the picture it is much easier to see VS the naked eye.
Thanks again
I'm putting this carb on a 400 SBC small valve truck engine any suggestions?

 Sorry, bigchief, not sure on your question. Cliff will know and which Qjet would be best for your application. 8)

Nice carb.  I would rebuild it with one of our kits.  I'd start out with the stock jets and metering rods, and tune if/as needed....Cliff
