You guys are probably right that has been over forty years ago and I never liked or ran them I just thought I remembered a few guys claiming that they had 1050s. I always ran Daytona AFBs or Holley. I never saw a Q-jet that I liked until I bought my wife a new 1985 Astro Van, Drove it ten years and never had to touch it. Then I built my current 250 and had an Edelbrock on it but couldn't get it to lean out at low rpms (under 3000) changed rods, jets, & springs and never got it to suit me. A friend of mine that collects, rebuilds and sells carburetors handed me a Q-jet set up for a 4.3/5.0 chevy and said try it if you don't like it after 3 or 4 months bring back if you do pay me for it. To make a long story short I paid him for it.


Been there, Done that, Hope to live long enough to do it again.
