Hi guys. I am new here so bear with me. I have a 69 GTO. I would like to replace or have my existing Quadrajet rebuilt. I want it to "look" good but most of all I want it to run right. Who can do the best job? I don't mind paying for top quality work. Just don't want to get a carb that has been "recolored" with a "kit" installed. Who does this work and what all is done to rebuild it right with proper flow and leak down testing. Thanks, Jimmy Rhodes

Contact Cliff Ruggles at [email protected] about his Q-jet preparation. Cliff's QJ's operate flawlessly and come custom calibrated to match your combination's needs. Reasonable prices and top quality work. Check for past posts raving about his work.

Rocky, Thanks for the tip on Cliff. He has already replied to my email. I saw carbking reply to a post as well on another subject. Since I am new to the board I don't know anyone and what their areas of expertise are. Don't want to step on anyone's toes! Does carbking rebuild/fix carbs as well? Thanks, Jimmy

Jon Hardgrove (carbking) owns The Carburetor Shop in Eldon, MO. Jon is also very good with Q-jets. Jon limits himself to 1974-earlier Q-jets while Cliff will do all years.

Either are an excellent choice, just depends what carb and what you're looking for.
