I need to rebuild my carb on a 1957 f800. However I can’t find out what I have. Attached is a picture of the numbers on the tower.
332 yblock Holley 4bbl.

as always, thanks for your help!

I keep trying to steer you to the Large Truck forum where you might run into a fellow F800 owner.

Those carbs are rare and obsolete.

https://www.carburetion.com/CarbNumber.asp?Number=R1457

Looks to be a match, but you'll have to email them to see what they have.

EDIT:

A little closer here:

https://carbkitsource.com/kits/ck4221.html

Your 1457 number does not appear.

Are your idle adjusters on the rear metering plate? Is there a governor setup on the carb or under it on a separate plate?

You should probably take the carb apart when you get a kit and compare gaskets etc side by side to be sure they will work.

The 1960 manual calls out carb number B9TE-9510-K for the 332HD engine.

Here's a pic of one from ebay. Look familiar? USED HOLLEY 4 BARREL CARB B9TE-9510-K FORD 1959 TRUCK 332 V8 ENGINE | eBay

I apologize for being in the wrong forum. I was under the impression this forum was for older fseries and larger trucks. At any rate both carbs in this thread are identical to my carb. Thanks for all of your help!!!!

You are not in the wrong forum. Post here anytime! The other poster is just trying to encourage you to utilize the large truck forum in addition to this one as there may be help there that you can't get here: Large Truck - Ford Truck Enthusiasts Forums (ford-trucks.com) Enjoy your trucks!
