Alright gents (and the lovely ladies), I think I'm gonna move my future posts on this to rig to vintage and resto's (is 1986 old enough to be "vintage"?). For anyone interested on my progress you will be able to follow it there..I'm headed down in the morning so I should have some updates this weekend.
Sidebar: I'm planning on rebuilding my Q-Jet this weekend which ignited my little light bulb. I did a search within the forum for Quadrajet carbs and didn't find much. If the community is interested, I can post a walkthrough/tutorial on rebuilding these carbs. Unlike a lot of people out there, I believe it was one of the best carburetors ever made if tuned and built properly (if, if, if!!).
Maybe it can prove beneficial for people who pick up an older Chevy chassis (and want to get some hands dirty).
