Yeah, they are quite a few years newer than the GM Q-jets. That alone should mean that a larger percentage of 'em are in better shape.

And thanks for the heads-up ! But I already have a couple of E-Q's. And there are always several for sale on Ebay.

Also, have a small stash of GM Q-jets, and access to lots more.


" Carter made them for GM back in the mid 70's too. "

Yeah, Carter made LOTS of Q-jets, in the '60's & '70's. Their name is cast into driver side of the main body. " MFG. BY CARTER CARBURETOR FOR GMC ".
