QJet Carb# questions

[cheepin]

Have a QJET carb on a 350 that has the numbers 17054930. Trying to find a rebuild kit for it and what CFM it is. Not finding this number. TIA.

I think you need to get a better look at the number.

Nope that's the numbers. Date code is 0958. That's the thing your link and Bandit130"s link are contradictory. Best I found is the 17054930 is a replacement carb of some sorts. Even that rebuild kit's numbers vary. In the first list it's there. But not in the second. May have to give that guy a call.
Edit. Did find the number in the second list. doah. What CFM would this be? 650?

What is odd is Q-jets beginning with 1 should be from 1975-on. That 4 is suppose to indicate the year(1974), which is weird.

Generally there were two cfm's.
725 and 800.
Some say they were 750 and 850.
But what's a few cfm here and there!
