Specs for another Ebay carb. Thanks, in advance. Don't really know why I bought but it looked pretty clean in the pics, missing some linkage is all.

jim i like them carbs , i don't remember the specs ethan probably has them , the ones i had came off 1 ton big block 454  chevy cab and chassis. they had an extra hole in the base plate that went up into the  back side if the secondaries. i talked to cliff and he said it was ok to plug , so i tapped the base plate and bearing mounted a 5/16 i believe  allen head in it .turned out very nice i installed them back on same engine , cleaned up all the smog crap and they made great power and good milage. fwiw

 You have to remember, after 1980 they didn't put the numbers in the books for specific metering rods and jets. Just a metering rod and jet kit. But, I found some online info that shows:

 .075" Jets
 58S Primary Metering Rods
 EF Secondary Metering Rods
 

77cruiser:
I forgot you had said that. I searched on the 58 s rods & saw that Cliff had done one about 4 years ago.
Thanks for your knowledge Ethan.

carmantx:
My notes show it to be a single main, 800 cfm hot air choke Quadrajet.
I pulled 76 jets and 50S rods in one. And DA secondary rods.  Not sure if these were original.
