DiploV8:
Hello
I need help!!
I´m driving a Opel Diplomat-B.
This car was produced from 1969 to 1977 in Germany, by a douther from GM.
It´s an 67 Corvette engine with a other carb.
Here few numbers: 17057286
                                17057286
                               7041286
                                 17057286
I thing so, these carbs are not spare parts!

Greetings
Michael

#8 indicates a checker or marine carb supposedly. but this might be the numbers assigned to this vehicle.
I did a search and this seems to indicate that this was the number assigned to the opel with the chevy motor. hope it helps.... enjoy!

Cliff Ruggles:
What specifically did you need help with?  We have parts, and SR/HP rebuild kits for those carburetors.  I've never seen one here in the shop, so they must be pretty rare in the US.

Q-jets were also used on the Holden V-8's in Austrailia, we've sold some parts for those in recent years.

I'm also pretty sure a similiar number Q-jet was used on the Ford 429 engines in the early 1970's.  I may have one of those in the shop, I'll check the number to see what it is?....Cliff

Hello,
i will understand what  #8, it is ?
It´s for the guy´s in germany .
The normal 327 ci engine had a outher carb.
Was the Rochester Quadrajet made for Opel ???
I don´t know.....?
I will remember, the #8 is for Holden, Marine carbs, checer, original GM spare part and Opel.
That´s right ?

Michael-
Yes most times the #8 meant it was an unusual application. A foreign motor for a NON US car like yours would be a case like that.
In any case Cliff can sell parts or kits for all those carbs.
