I have a square fuel bowl on a 1967 charger. I have never seen this before, anyone have any ideas?

If I had to guess, I'd say that it's aftermarket, or the wrong carb.

It looks like an aftermarket gimmick to me. I worked at a parts store in the 70's. They sold a "Miles Master" fuel pressure regulator that looked similar.

After looking at it closer, it does look like a regulator.

Does it have a name or some kind of markings on it? It does look like an old sediment bowl from the 50s or early 60s.
