Yeah, I suspect that lots of Pontiacs used that same size AFB.

Same with the Q-jet. Most of the Pontiac engines used the same size Q-jet, during the same model year. There were exceptions, such as the SD455 Q-jets. Also the rare 455HO Q-jets that didn't have the outer booster rings.

Hey, some of the OHC Six engines had a Q-jet.

Some 301's came with an 800cfm Q-jet.

I suppose the main thing is that Q-jet equipped Pontiac Stockers are not power limited by the carb, since the Q-jets can feed low 9-sec SS Pontiacs. I suppose the quickest Pontiac powered SS pass may have been the 8.90, made by the GT/AA 428 powered Cobalt, raced by Robert Cruzen. That Q-jet had to be the 750cfm size. I suppose some refer to that size as the "small" Q-jet. Don't know.
