WTB: 600 CFM 4bbl for '68 Buick 350 (hopefully in Minneapolis/St. Paul)

[Rickesota]

Hello,

I just picked up a cast iron 4bbl manifold from a '71 350 for my '68 motor. Now I just need a carb. Anything gathering dust on your shelves out there - preferably with an electric choke???

Thanks!

Rick, I have a couple of miscellaneous AFBs laying around.  Both in nice shape.  I'll bet the 68 runs Quadrajet, right?  I've got one of those as well, but from a 70's car.

Hi again!

I'll keep you posted. Another buddy may have come through with a free Q-jet. If not, I'll be sure to let you know.

Thanks!!!

Dear Rick and mid-60s Buick caregivers on a budget,

I'll keep you posted. Another buddy may have come through with a free Q-jet. If not, I'll be sure to let you know.

The Quadrajet is one of the best designed carburetors that ever existed, so that should make your car happy, and you can't beat free! 

Let us know!

Cheers, Edouard

Q-jet seems to be the general consensus between you guys and v8buick.com. Thanks for the input!!!

Just make sure you have the correct intake manifold for it.  AFB = Square bore, Q-Jet = Spread bore.  Some aftermarket manifolds have provisions for both.

It's a spread bore for sure.

Thanks!

Q-jet it is then!
