Q-jet
I have a Q-jet carb with a number of either #17058212 or #70258212 and after that is BJA while underneath is #2417. Anyone have any idea as to what it's for? A guy wants to sell it to me as being a carb for a Vette. He says it's for a 76 big block shich is wrong cuz they stopped with the BB in 75. Can someone help me figure out what it is?

17058212 = 1974-78 Chevy/GMC Trucks with remote choke according to this web site:

The other number is not a valid part number.

170 = after 76
58= 78
2= 50 state emissions
1= chevy division
2= auto trans
there is usuualy a date code like you have shown for when the carb was made yours shows as
production code BJA made on the 241st day of the year 1977

So it very well could be a truck big block carb from a 78 Chevy/GMC vehicle.
