Re: Quadrajet (mike79)
Eckler's sells a book titled "Rochester Carburetors".
The caption reads "The complete Rochester book! Q-jets, 2 barels and Mono-jets are covered with 832 photos and 296 pages. Ranging from lo-buck street rebuilding tips all the way to all out racing applications."
The book is item # A4005 and lists for $16.95
I have no idea if it's any good or not, but I think I'll check my local library first. When I went looking for a book on my TH350, they were able to get one from a local college tech library. Good book that came in handy for my Shift Kit install. Maybe I can get lucky with this one too.
If you have (or anyone else has) this book, I'd be interested in hearing opinions about it.

Re: Quadrajet (mike79)
The Rochester Carb book does not have that info. Try getting Lars on this forum. He has a great amount of info on the Quadrajet. Just email him and I'm certain he will send you the info you need. He has help a large number of people on this forum, including me, giving explaination on how the Quadrajet works.

Re: Quadrajet (RMS73)
Roger, is there anything useful in that book?
Mike79, you may want to look around the Web for info. Here's one link I found a while back, but it's more about adjustments than pure specs (http://vetteworks.tripod.com/Qjet.htm). From what I've seen in other threads, Lars is definitely "the man" when it comes to Q-jets. Maybe after I've taken the plunge and "fixed' mine :rolleyes: I'll look him up for some help.

Evidently refers to the book by Doug Roe. It is very good & rec. to anyone interested in Q-Js. Most of the book is on Q-Js. We have had several topics mentioning it. The info. asked for is not in it as Roger stated above. Some carb info. is in manuals, available from Chevy dealer & on this forum by listing carb info.!
Have some Q-J carb specs.
