I would answer by saying the same thing you just said!!!! I'll look up the one not read to see if anything is better or worse.........

Anyway, I have a date with LARS GRIMSRUD this spring to get my JET Q-JET from JEGS dialed in for my specific application. Again.........If you are not making more than 700 HP....I think a Q-Jet is the way to go!!!! But you will have to learn them and rebuild a lot of them and cuss a-lot and etc.....

My biggest reason for saying all of this is using a Holley 750.....a badly tuned Q-Jet.....and a edelbrock square bore. The feeling at 6000 RPM with the Q-Jet was nothing short of spectacular (spelling). Great response in the primaries due to small size. AWESOME WOT if tuned due to HUGE secondaries.......BEST CARB EVER MADE.........!!!!!!!!!!!!!
