Easiest place to start is the factory manuals. Then refine from there.

Let me first admit that I am a complete novice with these trucks. I recently bought a 1971 big block truck that was built in Atlanta. Just judging from the dates I have pulled, I believe the truck is very original. It even still had a set of dry rotted bias ply tires on the rear with a good bit of tread remaining. My transmission, engine, rear-end, and intake are all dated early May of 1971. I am giving all this background to say my info is strictly based on what is on my truck which I think is original to the truck. My carb is a 7041209 (pictured above). If I am interpreting the date code correctly, it was built on April 13, 1971 (103rd day of 1971). I assume this would be a correct date for my truck since it is about a month before my engine assembly date.

I pulled another page ( the next page, page 452) out of the 71 C10 manual that is linked in SSTim's signature. That info specifies a 7041209 for both automatic and manual transmission trucks.

Tim,

I don't know why mine posted as a link. Would you mind posting an image of the next page from the manual (page 452)?

Yes, my truck is an original 1971 402 with the automatic transmission. From what I have read, the even number for auto / odd number for manual transmission is not a hard and fast rule. If you can pull up the adobe link in my other post, it clearly show automatic/manual listed by the 7041209 carb in the assembly manual.

Hope this helps,
Mike
