Thermoquads
 
I have two Thermoquads on the shelf in the shop.

One is a 6545S 167 7, probably came new on a 1980 Dodge 1 Ton 360.

The other is a 6453S 318-7, may have come from Ed Hamburger back in the day.

Are either one of these anything special that should be placed in the right hands?

Thanks,
Bill Lamb

6453 came on 1974 360 federal automatics, 6545s came on 74-77 440 truck engines. They are both 1 1/2 primary carbs. Maybe the 360 carb might be worth something to someone running a 360.

They are legal for 360/400/440 but not 340/318.

They are both fairly common.

Rod and John,

Thanks for the info. I found one more (in a Holley box) that is labeled that it came off the 1980 DRW Dodge 1 ton 360. It is a 9292S 109 0. It does have an emissions valve of some sort on it the others don't have.

Thanks!
Bill

Probably an altitude Compensator. It can be easily plugged

Just one more reason I use earliest possible carbs.

According to my info a 9292 is a small primary carb 1980 360 truck.

Yes it came off a 1980 one ton I used to have. However I am pretty sure it has the 1.5" primaries. Somebody on Facebook told me they were only good for parts.
Thanks!

All the parts are pretty common except 1971 Carbs.

I have over 200 of the Thermoquads.

WhenJon was 4 or 5. He had a wagon and I gave him a wallet
fun of 5 dollar bills and he bought all be could find for 5 dollars at Pomona
Swap meet every month!
Several of the Div. 7 racers remember dealing with him they tell me.

The book I have says 1 3/8 which I thought was odd most 360's were 1.5 pretty easy to tell just by looking. I would be interested to know so I could correct my list.
