Hello V8 Buick, I need A new carburetor for my Buick 350 from 1969. Have A 75 four barrel intake and T/a C-110-350 cam. The rest is standard. Like to have T/A intake and headers. What do you guy propose??? Dit see at summit Holly street legal HLY-0-80450 for buick from 1970-74 600cfm and Holly model 4175 four barrel Quadrajet replacement 650cfm. Thanks Koos Diedel.
Hello Koos, I ran into you at this car meeting in Drachten the other week, you were looking at this wiring diagram in a Chilton manual for a Cadillac Seville remember? I made a promise that I would scan that particular diagram and mail it to you, but lost your card.......... So if you still need it, let me know. I have a used Rochester Q-jet from a 1978 Riviera for sale, came from a perfect running 350 engine. Let me know if you're interested.
At LEAST a 750 CFM!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nothing smaller! Try and stay with a Quadrajet if you can. I have the Holley 750, and I believe the Quadrajet is a much better carb for mostly street driving after its set up correctly. Mark
Re: Re: Carburetor fore 350 Sorry Koos, this is what i meant: between thous two, go for the vacuum sec, Q-jet replacement (spread bore)! Lars
I'd strongly recomend a Quadrajet Spreadbore 750cfm or 800cfm. I also have a 69 Buick 350. The original Quadrajet was really corroded as the cr sat for the better oart of a decade in the original owners garage. When I bought the car it ran a slow off idle. I rebuilt the carb and it ran like a champ! It pulled very strong and the quadrajet is so easy to rebuild, tune and fix. I ended up stripping out the threads at the fuel intake and put in a Holley Street Avenger 670cfm for the time being. The Holley can't compare to the Rochester. Maybe I should have went up a size. Who knows. But I do believe that the Quadrajet is a better carb. Flip over a Spreadbore and look at those big coke can secondaries. Now compare that to the silver dollar secondaries of other aftermarket carbs. Any questions? I'm currently looking for a a new Quadrajet 750 or 800 cfm to rebuild and use or fix my original. Wait, actually, ya go with the Holley. In fact, I've got a nice new Street Avenger I'd be glad to sell you really cheap!
