3x2 on SBC
« on: September 05, 2020, 07:08:28 PM »
First off, I realize this is a Q-jet site. Was curious if your shop has done any Rochester 3x2 set-up's on a sbc. I suspect, some parts would be the same as Q-jets. Other than the cool factor, would there be any drivability or performance advantages to the 3x2 set-up over a lone Q-jet? Phil

Haven't done any Chevy's, but have restored quite a few Pontiac, Olds and Cadillac tri-power carburetors over the years but don't offer that service at this time. 

They are extremely labor intensive and lots of parts to zinc plate.  I also make my own fuel  lines for them in most cases as I'm never happy with the original lines or the aftermarket line sets being sold for them......Cliff

Thanks for the reply. I guess I will stick with the Q-jet. Works well. Been seeing a few 3x2 retro set-up and was curious if it might be something to try. Phil
