No. They had a fairly large 4GC 4-jet

Undoubtedly, the most common on the '66 327/275 from the factory was the small Holley, followed by the AVS and the QJ. That the QJ's weren't on the majority of cars is true...but what's also true is they DID come on some of them.

NHRA recognized this, and ruled on the legality of the QJ on the '66 327/275's. End of story.

Some of use have been around long enough to know and remember what happened, both as racers and/or NHRA Technical Advisors. -Al

Hey guys, looks like I won the bet. And it had nothing to do with any q-jets...

The 327-350 does have the small Holley, not the QJet.

The thread veered off track into what was legal on what combos of 327's...hence all the different references to small Holleys, AVS's and QJ's. -Al
