1406 or edelbrock q-jet - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I been running the 1406 and its a pretty cool carb. Hasnt really given me any problems at all aside from an electric choke issue. But i also scored a brand new unused edelbrock Q-jet. I know the primaries are smaller but is it really going to make a big difference as far as fuel. One thing a friend told me was that the secondaries for the q-jets are in a class of their own as far as power. Anyone actually run both these carbs on the same engine and seen an overall difference?
