    I have a 66 switch pitch turbo 400 transmission and I want to use a Q-jet carburetor. Does anyone have the factory set up brackets and switch?

    I have a carb that’s works with that linkage, brackets, and switch if you need a carb. It’s ready to go

    Do you have pictures? What is the number on the carb? You say it is ready to go. Does that mean it has been rebuilt? Do you have the switch?

    Was this carb on your Riviera when you were racing it? The "air bleeds have been enlarged." What does that mean? My 66 Q-jet manifold is not for a divorced choke.

    More bypass air is allowed into the engine, this helps bigger than stock cams idle easier. I put over 1500 street miles on the carb and only 16 1/4 mile passes, so racing it is a strong word haha.
