Hey guys,
I got a 71' project truck with a 307. What kind of 4 barrell carb will bolt right on?. It has a 2 barrell now. I wanted to go to the junk yard and look around for a Q-Jet or similar. Thanks

There isn't any type of a 4barrell that will bolt on to a 2barrell intake without installing an adapter. They do make these rochester adapter plates but It would be much more effective to just install a new intake.
Pick up a 4barrell intake but be leary of buy carbs from junkyards. If the thing sits too long it oxydizes the fuel and ruins the carb. |

Zkast,
You're right about the intake. My project truck looks like yours!. Nice pics you got there. I wish the motor looked like yours!

Not that this helps, but I gave away my 4-bbl intake a few months ago, after installing an Edelbrock Performer. I have an Edelbrock 1405 (manual choke) square-bore carb that I pulled off and replaced with an Edelbrock 1901 (I think this is the right number) Q-Jet. I love it and I recommend it. Do what you have to do, tho.

Holley makes a 500cfm 2-barrel that will bolt on to your manifold. Also, I think the big American iron, like Olds, Buick, and Pontiac, used large two barrel Rochesters.
