Service replacement carburetor. Built 356 day of 1974, 1984, etc. Outer carb for a '67-'68 Corvette tri-power.

How can you tell it is a service replacement?

Original would have a 3 digit date code. Example 731 would be first week of March '67

From "Mr. Google".

The date codes on factory Holley carbs were 3-digits up to 1973, and 4 digits thereafter. The 3 digit format was year-month-week, and the 4 digits were julian date (day 001 to 365 of the year) and last digit of year (doesn't clarify which decade though)
