    Like the build, someone took their time, saved and spent a lil more in the right places. Is your qjet set up for a high idle when cold? Im in Ca and drank the "dont need a choke" bit. BS...big difference with none at all. Before, any weather, even if it sat for a month...1/2 throttle pump just one turn the key and let it warm up

    Sounds great! The quadrajet is probably one of the best designed 4 barrel carb out there. That's if it's in good tune and not worn out. They have been put on Chevy 305s. All the way up to 500 cu in Cadillac engines. Hell even Ford has used them. They installed them on their big badass 429 engines. And that was from the factory! One thing that GM got right! Along with the Turbo hydramatic 350 and 400 transmissions.

    That is how they were designed to work and they did on oh idk hundreds of thousands of cars and trucks flawlessly for many many years on everything from six cylinders to big blocks w only some internal modifications from rochester they came in two sizes 750 and 800 only till the 80s when they had different ones but the beauty of them is it only feeds what the engine calls for unlike a holley a holley you have to get a 650 or 750 or whatever the engine needs the good old q jet can be an 800 cfm on a 305 chevy and the air doors only open according to engine vacuum and give it only the amount of air and fuel needed the best all around carbs ever made hands down great fuel mileage on just rhe small primaries again holleys dont have that ability and they really let you know wjen you do open the secondaries unlike a yeah a holley square bore trash carburetor no jets or power valves to have to work on taking the bowls off and getting fuel alll over the intake manifold last q jet i ran i took off a 400 pontiac angine that had been sitting in a shed for 20 years i bolted it on and all i did was blow it off w compressed air inside and out get the cobwebs out lol started it up and did nothing even the accelerator pump worked flawlessly lets see a holley do all that lmao never in a gazillion years that 800 cfm carb ran the 305 just fine it far surpassed the holley i took off in every way mostly part throttle response that was the biggest noticeable difference at first so if im giving it less throttle to get moving then of course better fuel economy it woke up the engine compared to what was on. It for sure ive always beem a q jet guy and always will be had so many old pontiac and Oldsmobile chevy motors back in rhe day w them that rocked that moan in the night carried for miles my buddies always heard me coming for miles away Rochester engineers hit the nail on the head for sure w the good old q jet boys lol

    Oh you have Edelbrock heads too, I didn't know. Lovely car sadly my Quadrajet has some broken parts, mainly the chokesystem... so I moved to an Edelbrock AVS 650cfm. Runs decent, could have been the 750 or 850... but she runs great A bit high on Idle sadly... How high is your car idling?

    • @brettslater872
      @brettslater872 7 дней назад

      The heads are ported cast iron '70 Stage 1's. I'd love aluminum, though. The intake is an old Edelbrock B4B and high idle is usually around 1,300 rpm. Once it kicks down to the 2nd step (before base idle), it's right around 1,050 ish. Perfect for warm up.

    G'day Brett, I left a really nice comment but for some reason RUclips took it down, why I don't know just being difficult as per usual. Thank you RUclips for being difficult without a reason. Notice no brake booster too much of a cam or is it the way it came out of the factory. No seat getting repaired just sounds awesome as per usual. Cheers Louis Kats 👍

    • @brettslater872
      @brettslater872 7 дней назад

      The seat was out while I was refinishing the lower kick panel. You can see in the clip it's missing under the dash. Removing the 4 nuts that hold the seat down is much easier than trying to get under there with it in the car. The car was ordered with manual drum brakes, which gave me more freedom of a cam choice, combined with the 4-speed.

For me to insure my 1970 VG Valiant Hardtop original 770 Hemi. 24 hour tracking with kill switch via my mobile phone. Kill switch in the car. Underground secure parking woth bollard. Dash Cam running 24 / 7. BTW just finished my resto as of the 14/7 after 6 & half years really enjoyed cruising my Mopar on Sunday. Love to send you some pictures. Any idea how I can do that. Cheers Louis Kats 👍
