Quadrajet problems

I build quite a few Q-jets. . For the small block I recommend .135 needle and seat. Use a Y-block off the regulator to the carb for a supply of fuel volume and use 5.5 - 7 fuel pressure. 6.5 is more than enough for the Q-jet. Rear flaps may need adjusting, but really done at the track.They should open at 1.350 for most and tension is adjusted 1/8" of a turn tighter or looser. Your Accl. pump shot can also be modified as well. There is mods that can be done to the carb for better performance. WD-40 and Marvels Mystery oil is your best friend. Keep all shafts and linkage lubricated. Hope this helps.
