Edelbrock Q-jet

[68rs/ss]

Reading Cliff's book, it has a section there about the Edelebrock Q-jets. Most of the discussion there is about the RPM Q-jet, with a recipe and other features of this high performance unit. I know there were other replacement carbs available from Edelbrock, but there is little info on those replacement units. Are those desirable and good candidates for a hotrod with proper rebuilding and modifications? I am guessing Cliff's parts would work on those?
Thanks for any replies.

I have a 1901 unit I used to run on my 350. Couldn't ever get it to idle worth a damn but ran good at higher throttle angles and wide open. Turned out to have a worn throttle shaft bore... brand new. So I shelved it for the rebuilt stock one I use now. I think if I was to use bushings to fix the vacuum leak at the shaft it would be a great carb, but that is currently lower on my list of things.
