Just a slight correction as I used to own one of these cars;
The q-jet came on 70-71 429 CJ. When one ordered this engine plus the “drag pack” option the engine became a 429 SCJ and they were equipped with a 780 Holley.

Rochester Quadrajet replaced the Carter TQ on mid 80's Mopar.
And, Delco/Rochester/GM never used Carter castings for replacement or rebuilt units.
FWIW
