If you are looking for an original 427 390 big block Quadrajet then good luck. It is cheaper and easier to find a good uncracked intake manifold for a 390 car, and they are not common.

Now if you have the original carb Lars is the best guy to send it to hands down.

Lars is the man. Rebuilt my Q-jet last year. Purrs like a kitten.

I usually send my carburetors to Lars to tune/repair from Canada to the US.

Last time I checked with @lars in April 2021, he doesn't take on work from outside the USA.

Unless perhaps his policy has changed since then?
