Carbi 4 chev MQ

[junior]

Hey guys,
I Need some advice on a carbi set up for me MQ swb 350 plz. I currently have a Quadi on it which was fine on the 307 for the 20 mins of drivin time but on the bigger cube engine its not liking it to much. The motor has edlebrock performer manifold,1 inch spacer and a mild cam (slight lumpyness).
I was thinking of going an edlebrock carbi which is basically a Quadi copy,refined alittle.
Ive been told to go a Holley 600 Vac secondry. Im confused cos ive heared that the Holleys aren't to good for off road use (is this correct ?)
Or are they ok with a few little mods done to the floats and breather tubes?
I may end up running duel fuel later on but do not intend on going straight gas at all.
I have got a few prices for ya info,Holley 600 $350 (Remanufactured)
Edlebrock Carbi $350 to$400 (new) and To rebuild me Quadi $300.
What yas think
All help greatly appreciated

Regards
Jnr

Junior,

coming down ur wat tomorrow again give me a buzz.

anyways,

The quadrajet should be fine.
they are better ofroad than a non modified holley.....
holley flood and starve depending on up or down hill climbs etc....
quadrajet are a little better......

I paid $200 to have my quadrajet fully reconditioned.... and still have it sitting on the work bench as i only fitted it breifly until i went straight LPG....... its only missing the bottome plate, which u can use ur own, if ur interested before 6 am tomorrow give us a buzz and ill bring it down.......

short of that, id prefer quadret for offroad over holley, but holley are simple to rebuild, cheaper and do a good job on anything apart from big angles........

Holleys arent worth the alloy they are made of
they dont work well in off road rigs unless they have been modded and even then IMO they suck compared to a Rochester.....
dribble and squirt performance only from a holley !

price around for a good supplier, they are out there


better still grab Jefricals ...the price seems fair

He guys how yas doin, guess i should have checked me replys before goin to bed last night hey.
Ive landed a couple of holleys to try off a friend of a friend.He's got me a 600 and 750 vac sec for a $100 each so for that price ill givem a wirl,if no good i can re sell em for that easy.
Everyone i spoke to today said go for the holley and if it plays up fit a 4x4 improvement kit to it for $30.Ill give this a go and let yas know how it goes,if no good ill grab that Quadi of ya screwy.
