The carb that I have on now is just temp, until my replacement is back from Quadrajet Power, which funny thing they are just down the road from me in Waring, TX :-)

Edit:
When my brother & friends rebuilt the carb, I seem to recall they didn't like the jets in the kit. I'm pretty sure they did some funny stuff with them, though if I'd ask he'll give me the same answer I generally get "that was too long ago, I don't remember" line. Regardless of that, the plan was always to switch out the previous owner's O'Riley's 78 Qjet for a 72 matching numbers Carb. It has just taken an extra long time to get that plan finished.
