Jalopy 45 I had an Edelbrock on mine and it ran just a little rich, tried changing jets and rods made it better but not right. Then a friend of mine that runs a carb shop suggested my most hated carb a Q-jet. I said no way there junk. He said bolt this one on and try it for six months and if you don't like it bring it back if you do bring me $150.00. So I said OK, bolted it on drove it local a couple weeks then drove it to the NSRA nationals in Louisville and back, then took him the 150 and quit bad mouthing the Q-jets. What he explained was the Q-jet was designed to correct the problems that the AFB had and the biggest problem is most people don't have them adjusted right. Both my power and mileage increased.
Been there, Done that, Hope to live long enough to do it again. Big Bill I.I.# 4698
