    Hi Ken, I tried to contact you via your website but I understood that it is probably not working correctly at the moment, but I would like ask you if you could build me a new QJet for my -79 Chevy C20, carb#17059508?
    The truck has a Chevy Goodwrench 350 low compression replacement motor with OE 4bbl intake and exhaust manifolds, basically all original Calif.emissions except the long block, minus air pump and piping, I´m guessing 155-165hp per original hp rating, runs surprisingly good still.
    I made a thread earlier way back 2014, this : https://www.v8buick.com/index.php?threads/79-q-jet-apt-question.288986/, but now the carburetor feels completely worn out, worn throttle shafts, high Hc at idle etc, I can`t get it to work properly , maybe it is time to let a professional to do a new one.
    Truck specs: Chevy 350, TH350 and 14 bolt with 3:73 gears, around 5000lbs.
    I don`t care about correct core numbers, as long as it is functions as it should and is suitable for this application, feel free to ask anything you like about the motor or the truck. I don´t have a core to send to you so I hope thats not a problem.
    Thank you!
