Wanted - Quadrajet metering rods

HandOverFist · 03-25-2014, 01:25 PM

Looking for secondary metering rods - DM, CF, DG or DF.

Try www.quadrajetparts.com they have just about everything.....

That's where I get most of my parts, but the richest rod they have is AX.

Alan Nyhus · 03-26-2014, 08:27 AM

Rich, I checked out my stash....nothing richer than the AX's (.397 tip).

The DF and DG's are virtually identical (.340). Other .340 tip dia. rods are the DU, DS and CF if that helps your search. Here's the GM number on a couple of the rods:
-DF: 7048512
-DG: 7048890
-CF: 7044775
The EF's @ .567 are good candidates for lathe turning to what you need. You might want to try Dean Oliver @ Deano's Carbs:

Thanks Alan - I may have to have some modified if I don't locate any.

631-234-8327 , everything from gaskets, jets, pumps , etc.... Cool place, hope this helps ?

Thanks for all the info guys...I have been to all the sites, but no luck yet. Recently enlarged the secondary well orifices from .136 to .146 on several test carbs...unsure how that will scale vs given metering rods. I can get a "CC" rod, but I fear that is going to be just too large a jump to be useful. Was hoping to have one set of rods in the above mentioned range to test in several carbs at my next TNT session.
