Rochester Q-Jet Adjustments
Does anyone know of a good web sight for Rochester carb adjusting. I am especially interested in the cold choke adjustments. My 80 runs very rich and over 2k rpm at cold start up.

I'm not aware of a web site specifically for what you're looking for but can offer the following suggestions:
www.corvettefaq.com look for a couple of papers by Lars
also in the forum tech threads. I think that there is a Lars paper there as well but don't recall much about the choke adjustment
What I would suggest is the Rochester book by Doug Roe. Perhaps more than you're looking for, but it does cover chokes fairly well.
ttt if nothing else.

If you drop me an e-mail request, I can send you my paper on Q-Jet Choke setup and adjustment. It covers step-by-step the setup for both divorced and integral choke systems:

Your paper nailed it on the setup and now mine works like it's supposed to.
Thanks!!!!
