Default Re: Current GM Q-jet Rules

"Replacement carburetors permitted provided they are same model, type,throttle bore, and venturi size."

OK. I reckin the words "same model, type" just mean they have to be a Q-jet type carb, and not necessarily a Chevy Model, or Buick model, or whatever car brand you race, or one specific Edelbrock number.

I suppose it only matters how the tech guys interpret the rule. It makes sense to me, since I don't see any big advantage to a particular Q-jet. But then there are lots of very similar parts, from different year cars, that would not provide an advantage, but are not legal.

Don't know if more of these similar, but different year parts will become legal, as parts for the older cars become more scarce, or not. ?
