Default [Lars or whomever else]Carb suggestions...

...well after not being driven for quite some time, my vette finally started after some serious mechanical help. Apparently the carb is bad or rusted or something or other, anyways...Could any of you suggest a good carb. I think my car is an L48.

:cheers:

I'm seriously tempted by the Edelbrock Q-Jet. My carb is gnarly looking and I think a NEW carb is the way to go. And many of the carb books tell you that you can't beat the Q-Jet for a street carb. I agree... :chevy
