Have a few 4V intakes I can't ID by casting number. I'm pretty sure they are Olds (probably late 50's) one bare, they other w/ all carb and power steering pump, etc.
Casting number 567184 but date codes very hard to tell.
I've asked all forums, sites, etc- All info online and books- No luck.
If anyone can help- it's Car Craft.
Thanks.

Well...if you've checked everywhere...it probably suggests it isn't an Olds intake (or you read it wrong...easy to do on old stuff like that). None of my sources have that casting number listed...or anything that I think could be confused with the number you've got listed.
Good luck.

the firing order is 18736542
I getting all sorts of info on Olds using this and cvadillac and La Salle.
1956 Olds 324s
303 engines
Also, one has a 4 barrel on it. There's no codes on it. All it reads is "Rochester Carberator" on fron and rear. On top of carb is reads 4 Jet.
Obviously this is earlier than the Q-jet from 60s+.
Both have what appears to be a date code:
bare casting reads 1 0 8
the other w/ carb looks like 3 3 3

I found this ebay guide, the carb looks just like the second picture, a 1958 with these tubes rounning around it.
"Early 4GC Carburetor - ca. 1953
The Rochester 4-Jet carburetor was a downdraft four barrel carburetor produced by the Rochester Products Division of General Motors from 1952 until 1967. It was first used on Oldsmobile and Cadillac in 1952 and was used on GM, Packard and Studebaker cars and trucks into the mid 60's. The last application was on Chevrolet trucks in 1967.
The 4-Jet consists of a pair of two barrel carburetors back to back, with the primary side being similar in construction to the 2-Jet (2G, 2GC, 2GV) carburetor."

Oldsmobile 4GC ca. 1958 picture on ebay guide.

I've been told it's an Oldsmobile 1956 from a website.

That generation is just a bit too old for me. I stick with the Muscle Era Oldsmobiles at this point...and because of that, my sources are incomplete when you get that old...
One thing that may help, keep an eye on intakes listed for sale...either on eBay or Hemmings, etc. If the seller knows what its off of, you can try to match the casting number.
Good luck!
