Right... your point contact gap is a bit too large.

I've always seen the number on the front of the bowl... on the body of the
carb itself... NOT on the top.  If it's anything like the model 2210C, the
bowl should be facing the thermostat housing.  The numbers should then be
on the bowl facing the thermostat housing.  It's pretty hard to see
sometimes because of poor lighting coupled with the accumulated grime and
oxidation of the aluminum.  I had to take my old Holley model 2210C off
when I got ready to rebuild it just to clean and clearly see the numbers.
You have to have them in order to buy a rebuild kit.

Good luck,

John
