Default Carb ID help

I picked a carb over the weekend and am trying to identify what it is. It is a rochester 4 bbl with numbers 17055463. 5463 doesn't seem to show up anywhere. Any ideas? Thanks in advance for any help.

Probably a 75 Olds carb.

#17055463 is the booking no. for the #17057256 Q-jet.
#17057256 is a 1977 Olds 800cfm Q-jet with the late style APT (good one).
Nice unit for a performance build.

Kenth, what's the 'booking' number mean?
It's not what is stamped on the carb?

Thanks for the info also.

Thanks for the info guys. I did keep looking on the internet for more info. I found a site that says this carb was a service replacement for 1977, but that was it. No other info. I was hoping it was the 800 cfm version. The plan is to build it for my 4spd 400.
