Number re-stamp? 7029202 DH
« on: April 01, 2014, 06:05:06 AM »
Looks like a Qjet for a '69 chevy automatic, but I'd like to understand why these stamped numbers are mis-aligned?  The 7029 is stamped on a different angle than the 202.  Is this common on older stock carbs, or did someone try to re-stamp? 

This carb has the rebuild sticker on it, so it might be pieced together from random parts (a Franken-carb).  I won't know more until I disassemble further.

I bought the carb really cheap, so it's no loss.

 Looks fine to me. I have seen similar ones. I have also seen, especially with this carb number, only having a stamp of 29202 and not the full 7029202.

 What are the casting numbers, that are in a little circle, for the air horn, float bowl and baseplate?

Here are the photos of the numbers (as best I can see):

Airhorn = 7044924
Body = 7037931
Base = 7030732

 Yeah, none of those match up for what should be on those parts. Possibly a Service Replacement. Not 100% sure though.
