Q-Jet to Performer Carb (1406?)
I am thinking about switching carbs.
I have an Edelbrock Q-Jet 1904 now. I planned to get it rebuilt, because I don't want to try it myself, and the lowest price I got from someone I think I can trust is $150.00. So I figure maybe I should switch to the Edelbrock Performer 1406. Is the 1406 the one I should be getting if I do make the switch? Its either the Edelbrock Q-Jet rebuilt or an Edelbrock Performer series, not interested in others. I have the Edelbrock 3701 intake. Is this also a sq. bore pattern? Will I notice a performance difference between the q-jet and the Edelbrock performer? Anyone make the switch and noticed less power? Are these performer carbs easy to rebuilt and adjust? I want something easier to adjust and easy to rebuild. Will I be able to hook up all my vacuum lines for emissions? Anyone in Phoenix running this carb and have trouble with emissions? I heard before that you may fail for having this carb on a truck that came with a q-jet. Edelbrock's website says this carb is not legal for pollution controlled vehicles. Anything I should expect (different parts, etc.) if I do make the switch? My engine is the standard crate 350 (not performance).
