Title: Carburetor Identification
Post by: Richard P. on July 16, 2015, 10:35:40 PM

I was given a  Holly Motorcraft carburetor that has a part# of DOPF U  B 7J23. Does anyone know what car this was used on?

It is  450cfm replacement carb for 390/410/428. It was not installed on factory engines but is identical to what was so they were available through Ford. Your 4 digit date is likely a 1977 issue.

Believe the 'U' designation is for 'Universal', so many applications.
