I checked the numbers on the Quadrajet that is on the motor I'm gonna put in my '67, (a 350) and found that it was built in late '79, with California emissions, and was for a manual tranny (I'm gonna run a 4-speed). The P.O. said the motor ran great, but I never heard it. It was in a '79 Blazer, so it had to be smogged from time to time here in California. It is worth leaving on the motor and seeing how it runs, or swapping it out now? I'm not sure how much the smog stuff will actually affect the carb.

Thanks in advance.
