Hey gents, I need a carb.

[bucket]

Qjet are arguably the best STREET carb ever made. I've helped get them working on Fords even...after the owner installed their beloved holley or POS revamped Carter (Ebrock), and got piss poor mileage while getting dusted by my 17mpg 442...LOL. I will say that a mech sec holley is less of a headache to deal with for a bracket racer/etc, but I raced one regardless. On the street they just plain work, sip fuel, and go WOT like a bat outta hell if you can deal with the .25sec quadrabog. This is a great newer article that hits a lot of points on the Qjet. Some of them are strictly for retuning for a racey cam/etc...You just need a rebuild.

For the most part I agree, but I got to stick up for Holley. They are the best carb to run if you don't know how to diagnose or tune a q-jet, and you CAN get good mpg out of them and they WILL hold an adjustment if it's set up right to begin with. But I do agree though, NOTHING beats a q-jet that is working properly.
