why dont some inliners get into gear with a 750 cfm q-jet. If the 230 and 250 Pontiac OHC motors used then from the factory, why dont anyone else try it. Heck there is probably the correct jetting right there.

You got little primaries (practically unstumbleable) and easily adjustable secondary tip-in (if your motor cant suck it open wide open-then you dont get 750 cfm--sort of self adjusting yhat way). Much mentioned Doug Roe ran them on the baja miniboots (vega 2300 motors ,and even a chevette road racer with a 1400 or a 1600 engine). How could you be scared of a carb with that much adaptability? There are plenty at the swaps dont need to buy a brand new Edlebrock model. Holley has few, few features that cant be found on a Q-jet once you get to know them.
