In my opinion, you won't find a better carb out of the box than the Edelbrock 1406, at least in terms of a daily driver/mild performance engines. Plus they are reasonably priced.

huero · 10-08-2008, 11:23 PM

Quadrajet.
Best carb ever made!

bowtieboy93 · 10-08-2008, 11:59 PM

Barry Grant best but most money

edelbrock good and easy for cheap

**68350** · 10-09-2008, 05:07 AM

Quadrajet all the way. 750 or 800 cfm with massive secondarys. Love em!

Q-jet. Snappy throttle response at all rpm ranges.

I second 68step. What engine is it going to run?

OrangeCrush1970 · 10-09-2008, 04:19 PM

Q-jet. Tallyhoo hoo!!!

greasy68 · 10-09-2008, 04:25 PM

I run a BG road demon. Great carb for the money. I love the q-jet too....and the Edelbrock for that matter. I think it is a matter of preference. They all have their strong points.

lowriden58 · 10-09-2008, 04:26 PM

holley 750 double pumper, mechanical secondaries and chokeless here

Sinister · 10-09-2008, 04:29 PM

I'm running a Quadrajet here, but have had good luck in the past with an Edelbrock Performer.

**john** · 10-09-2008, 04:52 PM

Gotta join the Q-Jet club.

Psycho71 · 10-09-2008, 08:44 PM

Street Avenger 670 here, love it.

But all of the above advice is good too.

Pont406 · 10-09-2008, 09:34 PM

Q-jet is the best.
