^^Thanks for the info.^^
I guess the problem I found in the old days was the Thermoquad's housing always seemed to warp, rendering it useless. When I found one on a project car, I would replace it, and that usually cured the cars carb problems. It was common for mechanics back then to say they were not rebuild able.
Over-torquing the screws and heat are the ThermoQuad's Achilles heel. What I really love about the ThermoQuad, as well as the Quadrajet, is when you hit that go pedal and the secondaries kick in, and you hear that roar of the air being forced down into the intake.

StingrayL82, it would seem you have all your bases covered.
I try, believe me I try. In the end, though, it always seems like I've forgotten that ONE thing that comes back to bite me in the rear end.
