    Why is there 2 holes in the lever ? one for more ratio and one for less,, or squirt of fuel? never did know.. thanx

    The hole closer to the fulcrum will provide a larger squirt than the one further away. I'm guessing you mean on a Q-Jet, but the principle is the same for any carburetor.

    Yes, Q-jet. I know that but, why would you want to push so much gas in as to make it stumble on a factory car. just wondering.

    Its just another available tuning option. The Quadrajet was used on MANY different engine/vehicle combinations and is highly adaptable/tuneable.
