Good to be back in Stovebolt Land!!!
I picked up another truck, a 1964 GMC Long Wideside. This one has a 283 in it. The old Rochester 4 bbl Q-Jet is pretty hammered. I soaked it then took it apart. The secondary throttle plates were rusted in place...not good. Before I sink more time and money into it, I got to wondering if the Holley 500 cfm 2 barrel carb would be a good match for the V8. I'm running the Holley on my other GMC with the 305 V6 and am very pleased with the results. Anybody out there know what the Q-Jet flowed? Is 500 cfm enough or too much for the 283? Any other suggestions for a resonable carb for this thing? The engine is stock, as near as I can tell.
Thanks in Advance!!!
