Default Q-Jet on eBay, Question

Will this carb fit my stock L-48 1976 Vette? Is this a decent price? Also, as anyone had any dealings with this seller?

Buy a cheap one that needs to be rebuilt and send it to Lars. He could probably rebuild circles around these guys in the auction.

It's a front fuel inlet, where your carb inlet is a side inlet. You would have to re-do a custom fuel line. Not a big deal, but more than just a bolt-in. I am not familiar with the seller. You will probably want to blueprint any carb you get, unless it's from someone like Lars, or Cliff's Q-Jets (someone with a good reputation). Doug Roe and Cliff Ruggles both have good books on the Q-Jet if you want to do it yourself.
