Quadrajet
Okay guys…I’ve searched the forum, read the posts, and think I’m ready to go for it…but just want to make sure before I give up the cash. I’ve got a basic fresh rebuilt 327, 2004r transmission, 3/4 headers, dual 2 1/2 exhaust, Edelbrock Performer intake, and an Edelbrock 1406 carb. I’m thinking of converting to a q-jet, but wanted to know if one is better than another, if there are models to stay away from, or if the newer models had improvements I might as well have?
any thoughts or insight is much appreciated. I’m not particular to having one that originially came on a ‘68 camaro, so if a newer model with all the bells and whistles would work better for my daily driver, I’d appreciate the info.
thanks,
clay

I would recommend a later model with electric choke. They also have easy access to the APT setting screw. You can connect the choke to the wiper motor power wire.
What kind of choke will manifold work with may help you decide. The early ones with divorced choke will need the choke coil mounting surface on the manifold.
