Not sure which adapter you need, as I don't know alot about carbs, but this link should be helpful.

Welcome!!

A quadra-jet is a spreadbore carb (rear bores are bigger) and that intake is a spreadbore intake. No adaptor is needed. Just get a new base gasket and put it on.

You can find carb spacers which may make for a better fit between the two however, just ask for a spreadbore carb spacer.
