Default 650 -750 cfm Carb Needed

Lars
The easiest thing to do is to get a 1975-1979 Chevy Passenger car Q-Jet in unmolested rebuildable condition. This means a carb that has not been commercially rebuilt previously. Avoid truck carbs. Send me the carb, and I can set it up correctly for you for a modest fee. This will be a direct bolt-on for your application and will run


I'd like to ask is anyone has a 650 -750 cfm carb preferably a Rochester Quadrajet, that I could either bolt on or have lars rebuild since the 2 carbs I had are now history. This is my first choice to the direct bolt on application. If anyone has another carb please forward any information. Pricing would be helpfull, and pm is fine.

Thanks everyone and hopefully my 75 coupe will be on the Larsfest 2006 list.

I have my original '80 carb. Too bad you need a 75-79.

Why not a new aftermarket carb?

During our education from Lars, on more than one occassion he was telling us to steer from the truck carbs as they were not as well suited or set up for a performance application. Metering rods, jets and (I know there was more) were different between truck and performance applications.

Thanks for the offer Les, it's the thought that counts.

Thanks Glen, waiting for your reply. Any idea what cfm it might be?


I have the original quad from my 78 in working order if you would like it.

Thanks Mike, can you send me some details on it as well as price?

Price too steep unless it's a steal Alex.


Thanks for all the suggestions guys. Please keep them coming.

Checked and found part number to be 7029200. You can have it if you want. Research shows it was for a 69 396/325 hp.

Would probably need a rebuild though.
