That carb is a restamp. The engine was offered to me as well. Look at the "4" and also the lack of any date-code on the carb. Get the engine for a good deal but don't pay for that carb as you would a 273 carb. I've seen only this block with the 279 ... it was purchased from Florida and I turned it down then when I realized the carb we restamped (and this company's reputation - the one in Floriday - is not good when it comes to #'s.)

Good luck with it. It's in Mass I believe.
