looking for 350 "goodies"
i got a 1980 vette, looking for a carburetor between 600 and 700 cfm rating, electric or manual choke and preferably an edelbrock. 
also looking for some interior accessories as well such as the center consoles(mine is an automatic by the way) dash pads and much more( the interior wasn't in too good of shape when i bought it) 
but im wanting to modify it. if anyone knows of someone selling aftermarket engine components or knows of a site that is somewhat cheaper then most i would greatly appreciate it.

I have a 1980 and agree with the Q-Jet. really good carb. just find someone that can tune it for you and have them teach you..
the interior stuff i got a lot from doc rebuild. Ecklers has it all too... not many options other than stock. Unless you do it your self....

What was the q-jet rated at from the factory on the 1980 Corvette with the small block 350? Cause I was told it was either 600 or 650 cfm. And would a 750 be too much for the stock motor or would it be ok?

That is what is nice about the Q-jet, it is capable of flowing 750 cmf but due to it design it will only deliver what the engine can pull. That is why GM used it on such a range of engines. so if your engine can only pull 600 cfm that is what the Q-jet will deliver.
