Another member said these could be later than 70-72 calipers heres another pic showing what may be the date code. I dont know how to read it if anyone does please comment.
Not positive, but upper number could be a Julian date - 54th day of '73.
Lower number(s) am guessing are last three of part #, they are one digit different.
The 5473497/498 are casting part numbers.
The 497/498 are enlarged for easy reference.
They are the correct calipers for all 1971-72 Olds A bodies.
1970 Olds A bodies by the way used the suffix 636/637
If you have a 71 or 72 disc brake car including 442 and W30 these are the calipers you want.
If you look at the back of the calipers you will see a number next to the L&R.
I believe that is the julian date.
You will notice that the back side just shows the last 3 digits of the part number.
