    Talked to a guy tonight and he says he has a 1966 Buick Riviera Quadrajet intake for the 401/425. :Do No:

    I wouldn't say it's RARE, but I have heard of a bunch of people who want them.

    The Q-jet carb/intake was available on all '66 425's and a small number of '66 Skylark GS's with the L76 engine option.
    Not quite rare, but somewhat uncommon. That intake/carb combo does work very well, so it is a desireable intake....

    I've heard that ALL 66 Riv GSs were Q-jet equipped (of course, if not dual quad option). Is this true?

    Car Craft bought a carb and intake from a 425 for thier 66 GS convert. I'm pretty sure they said it came from a Riv. They bought it cheap at the junkyard.
