You are correct that the QuadraJet was thoroughly discussed earlier. I was curses to why that carb was brought up in the context of overheating.
(Side point : I am still toying with the idea of trying a Q-Jet at some future time, but I won’t introduce another variable into my current situation)

Thank you for the caution about close examination of the carb footprint details. In the course of my off- season work on my truck last winter I made several jobs more difficult than they needed to be due to ignorance. Lots of do-overs. Learning as I go.
