Which carb?
I have an '84 Silverado that came with a 305 4bbl. I put in a gm crate 350, replaced the intake with a Edelbrock performer intake for a spread bore and kept the original q-jet. Got a bad rebuild on the carb I think. My question is, if I want to go with an aftermarket rebuilt Q-jet, which model do I need?

Re: Which carb?
I did Cliff's book on my Q-jet, followed one of his "recipes" for my engine. I also re-bushed the throttle shaft. Basic rebuild & modifications went easy, carb works super fantastic. Your mileage may vary.

Re: Which carb?
Sure hope you're a patient man when dealing with Cliff. He's backed up 6 months on orders.
