I don't really know what you're asking; your post is not very clear. Which engine are you talking about? Are you asking what the carburetor is from? Without the tag, it's anybody's guess. If this is a Motorcraft 2 barrel carburetor, then the venturi size (which should be stamped on the side) can give some clues as to the size engine it would have gone with. That's about it. These carburetors were used everywhere.

Welcome to FTE.

Yes to what? I thought you did not have the tag? Or do you mean you just found it?

Anyway...that first set of numbers should have another character, like D4AE, D4TE, etc.

Gotcha. That carburetor would have originally come from a 1974 truck. Maybe someone else can chime in with all the possible 2-barrel V8's that were available in 1974, or an exact decode of the part number. If I had to guess, I'd guess a 360, but who knows. A 400 didn't go in trucks in 1974, just passenger cars. 1977 was the first year that 400s were available in trucks.

You can post pictures to any online web space (Photo Bucket, etc) and then paste in the URL of the image in your post. Put [IMG] in front and [/IMG] at the end of the URL to make it show up once you submit your post.

That carb will probably not work well with a 400. Even the carbs that came with a 400 only flowed about 350 cfm.

Oh, I'm sure it will run ok. I was thinking along the lines that it wouldn't flow enough in the higher rpm's since it was originally set up for a 302. What are the numbers on the driver's side of the carb (ex 1.14, 1.21)?
