Decoding a Autolite tag

<< < (2/3) > >>

Deuce:
Linked photo is from Bob Mannel's Mustang & Ford Small Block V8 1962-1969, Appendix C Carburetors.

Not the best picture, but good explanation of carburetor tag codes.  Someone with access to pdf version of Mannel can probably capture a clearer version of page C-2.

Guy's Thanks for all the replies and information. Deuce, Thanks for the Bob Mannels page. The tag in question is, C9AFU. Below the C9AFU is the letter B. To the right is 9KG. What does all this mean? Are there more pages and information breaking down the letters and numbers on a tag? 

Thanks Again,

If the carb in question has a stamped number on the air horn of C9AF 9510-U then I can a least confirm that it is a service replacement carb for the 428 CJ engine (regardless of car) with automatic or manual or any application in the  700 CFM range.

Sure that "G" is not a "C"?

On period carburetor tags the third place is the week number so "G" doesn't fit that established pattern

Guess if it were made in 1979, 1989 or 1999 then the date coding could have been different for those later years

Sorry, you are correct, the last letter is a C.
Thanks for the reply
