If your going to build a Q-Jet Roe's book is still hands down the best origonal source. I bought a new copy of wiggles book for less than 8 dollars while Roe's book, 35 years later sells for about 20 dollars. It is truly the diffinitive source.
The price of a book means little for the value received. I've bought many new books for less than used books, on Amazon. Can you point me to a failure on the part of either author on making a recommendation of carburetor work? Have you made a "better mileage or best of drags ever with a Q-Jet" comparison? Please let me know.
