The phenolic bowls, by the way, were proven to run 20 degrees cooler than metal bowl carburetors.
75-1966 needles and .104" jets are the perfect combo for the 800cfm (1-3/8" primaries) ThermoQuad on a 360cid at 2600ft elevation.
The bowls are still available new: New ThermoQuad Phenolic Bowls
Thank you. Last time people on this thread looked, they couldn't find new replacements. IIRC, one person knew of a source but when they looked again, the source had gone out of business or quit offering.
So, to paraphrase LotR, "Looks like ThermoQuads are back on the table, boys." (And, girls ... orcs can be sexist, we shouldn't.)
