Default 4053 Holley carb ink stamp (1969 Z/28)

Does anyone have a survivor Holley that still has the "4053" ink stamp? Looking to create a stamp and need dimensions etc.
Ty, Doc.

Doc,

I imagine that the font is the same as Charlie's 70 Z28. You would only need a similar font set to get the 3.

See these posts to get a idea of font and the size:

This one is also a 1970 Z28 carburetor. Looks like there’s no rhyme or reason for how they were stamped as far as the placement of the stamp. Very random from carb to carb!

I found that the font TypoWriter was the closest I could find.

It is available here:
https://www.studiotypo.com/index.php...rch=typowriter

I might have just saved you about 5 hours of search time. There are millions of fonts out there!

I made my stamps on a 3D printer. Maybe be a bit too tall?
