Welcome to the site. Is the carb in a truck? I remember moving your post from the 73-87 truck forum.
Look at the front bottom left corner. It should have a stamped number. IE: 1405, 1406, 1407.
You can find the carb operating manual at http://www.edelbrock.com/automotive_new/misc/t ech_...
The carbs are easy to tune. All you need is a $15 vacuum gauge.

make sure throttle opens 100%
set idle speed/mixture screws and time engine
adjust idle mixture for highest vacuum reading, reset idle speed
