Here's soome info on tq's... hope it helps but I don't see that #.  :dunno:

http://carburetor.ca/Tech/Carter/tqguide-Vaanth.html

"1-3/8" bores are listed as 750-800 CFM and those with the 1-1/2" primary throttle bores are rated at 800-850 CFM"
1972 Dodge Challenger Rallye 340, AT, Code TB3=Super Blue, SBD=8/17/1971.  Yes, a Rallye without the fender louvers from the factory because of the body side molding option.

Here's a link that lists all the T/Qs Chrysler used...your number is not on the list but look again at your base plate back/drivers side & see if there is another number

That number on the top of the carb the 6-2124 I believe is a casting number. You need to look at the number on the base plate in the rear driver side. It should be a 4 digit number with a letter s /stick or a /auto begining with a 4, 6 or a 9 and end with a letter. 6138SA or 9810S..Check the list that the other guys posted early..
Let us know.....

These are the numbers on the base plate (driver's side rear)

oo19S               
264 - 2

Could this possibly be from a marine engine?

Probably does not matter...

found this interesting

"TQs with 1-3/8" primary throttle bore will have '2-315' stamped on the
throttle plates. 1-1/2" units will have '2-314' stamped on the plates.
All secondary plates are stamped with '2-312'."

Rebuild Kits don't seem to change between CFMs but do change over the years, if you post a pic we probably could at least steer you to the correct kit.
