    Interested in a quadrajet for my 70 455. I would like a rebuildable one, numbers need not match but would like it to be complete including choke housing and vacuum pull offs. :grin:

    Oh, yeah, and preferably around 40.00 less shipping.... :laugh:

    Don't laugh, that is about what a good rebuildable core sells for :) . If I see any I'll let you know and if you need help on the rebuild let me know, AL. :beer

    I have one that is rebuilt and was on my 455 for 3 months untill I found a correct one. It has electric choke and is ready to bolt on. Was rebuilt in march of this year. Looks like brand new
    Since it is Christmas, I would sell it for $150.00 delivered to your door

    WOW! What would you drive to bring it to my door?! :laugh:

    But, really, what's the lowdown on the electric choke? Just a positive wire to it and that's all? I don't have any knowledge on them, how long has it been off your car?
    Let me know, I may do it..... :beer

    Jerry -

    See if you can find a 1971-up 455 carb that flows 800 CFM. Then send it to John Osborne and you'll really be :3gears:

    I also hear Norm Dihle also does excellent Buick QJ work.

    I have a quadrajet I would let go for $40 plus shipping. I was running it for $75. I will let it go for $40 plus shipping to get it out of my house (LOL). E-mail me for pics.
    Thanks,

    Jerry, Its been off the car and in a box for 4-5 months now. If you want it , it will come via Santa's sleigh.

    The electric choke system is nothing more than a simple hot wire.

    I have one with an electric choke...$40 to your door.
    I'm almost positive it's 800cfm but I can look up the numbers if you're interested.

    i always thought that rochester didn't offer an 800 cfm carb that early. but it was a 750 cfm.
