To me, part of the "magic" of Stock and Super Stock racing is working with the pluses and minuses of each combination from the factory. If you look, number 1 qualifier has a Autolite/Motorcraft 2 barrel carb. If you really want to run a small block car in Stock, with a large non Q Jet carb, there are plenty, 71 & newer 340/360 MoPars, 340 3x2 barrel AAR Cuda/T/A Challenger, 71&newer 351 Cleveland Fords, 67-69 Z/28, 70-71 LT-1 Camaro/Corvettes, 69/70 Boss 302 Mustang/Cougar, numerous 318/360 MoPar Thermoquad cars, etc
