Qjets are fine if you can get them tuned right they do pretty well. I never had any luck with Qjets and its hard enough to find someone who can work/tune a carb let alone a QJet one.
I recently bought a quadrajet core that's proper for my 70 chevy, and rebuilt it with a kit from Cliff Ruggles and all, and now I'm getting no fuel, or sporadic fuel anyway, so I'm gonna go through it one more time to see if I messed something up.
If that doesn't work, and I buy the 1406 Edelbrock, do I need adapter plates or anything like that? Custom stuff to work with transmission, throttle linkage, etc? Just planning ahead in case going through this carb a second time doesn't reveal anything.
