have a couple questions about my truck
 

ok i have a 75 k5 blazer lifted on 37s and i want to change the qudra junk carb so what is the best carb to go with. for the most part it is my daily driver but i do take it off road once and a while. thanks for your help

Re: have a couple questions about my truck
 

imo it depends on mechanical ability. edelbrocks are easy no tune carb but not that great off road. holly is great all around carb but the ones ive had required tuning constantly.

what about the holley quadra jet replacement i heard it was a good carb without much tunning is this true

Re: have a couple questions about my truck
 

on the quad there is not just a whole lot of adjustment to them but they are great carbs if they are built right

Re: have a couple questions about my truck
 

Just rebuild and run the Q-jet, unless your pushing those 37's with some big power. My Q-jet equipped k-5 has really good power with 36's and Im getting 13.8 Mpg on the highway.

yea i am putting 37s on my truck but i was thinking about the holley avenger maybe or the holley q jet replacement

Re: have a couple questions about my truck
 

I was reading the thread and wondering who convinced you Quadrajet were junk? I might not be a professional mechanic but have been around long enough to know that what looks cool, is popular and what works best isn’t always the same thing.
If you are looking for a easier to adjust carb go with Edelbrock. The Holleys are a little easier to adjust than a Quadrajet but perform about the same as a well adjusted Quadrajet. A properly adjusted Quadrajet will perform as well as any other brand under most circumstances. If you truly want the best performance, tuning and mileage you need to go with electronic fuel injection.

I would say go with a quadrajet or Edelbrock those are my 2 choices.

Re: have a couple questions about my truck
 

I have had good luck with Edelbrock myself both on and off road.

Re: have a couple questions about my truck
 

so the edlebrock sounds like the best way to go for on and offroad and easist to adjust

Re: have a couple questions about my truck
 

Keep the Q-jet.

Re: have a couple questions about my truck
 

keep and rebuild the quadrajet

Re: have a couple questions about my truck
 

ok so the q jet is the best should i just buy the rebuild kit
