Is this the right carb for my car?  It is an automatic 440 with California emissions.

Thanks.

No - The right one with Calif. Emmissions is 4741S - For a 1970.
It is a a 70 440HP Auto carb though - a nice part! A 0 = Jan 1970. 0150 = 15th day of 70. 58 = buildsheet carb code.
Have you got a buildsheet?  I am assuming the number on it is 57.

That is not correct. For a 70 Charger R/T 440-4bbl auto with ECS the correct carb is the 4740S. The carb code on the broadcast sheet would be a 58. You have the correct carb.

If you have your broadcast sheet you can decode it here

The 70 Parts Manual is here as well

Yup - Sorry - I blindly trusted the Guru's book - The 4740S is listed in the parts book as B, J, R, W, P, D, C  w/ECS  440 Auto.  My bad - Please forgive me - got lazy  :icon_smile_dissapprove:

The studs/nuts are wrong though - needs bolts.

thanks for your comments, I wasn't sure whether the 4740 or 4741 was correct.  I do not have a build sheet unfortunately but the car does have the fender tag.

I made the same mistake going by Guru's book :brickwall:  LEON.

I concur with the 4740S.  :cheers:  (courtesy of Paul A. Herd...he is right most of the time  :P)
