The number isn't critical, as long as it has the fuel inlet in the same location. Make sure you get one for an automatic transmission, as you'll need the kickdown. You might even want to upgrade to a later year to get the electric choke (I think 76-up). Make sure the rebuilder knows what engine you're putting it on so they can jet it correctly.
