Title: Which of these 3 . . .
Post by: sello on January 22, 2014, 09:56:23 AM

 . . . q-jets would be best to rebuild for a 305 Chevy engine, stock cofiguration, 1978 camaro.

The carb numbers are 17083223, 17080123, and 17059212.  Don't know what any of these came off of.

Your advice and opinions are greatly appreciated!!

I'm not sure about the 17080123, but as long as it's not an E4ME I'd consider them all to be pretty similar. I'd pick the one that looks the least molested and go from there.

 Qjet 17083223 is an E4ME carb. Please recheck the 17080123. I can't find that in any of my manuals. It may be 17080213. If that is the case, that carb and the 17059212 would be your best bet.
