Rebuilding My First Quadrajet ...
howdy, friends,
my 69' Judge's original RAIII 273 carb was long ago lost so I'm in the process of building a 7029268 QJ suitable to the WS400, 041 cam, 48 heads, 4spd and 3,90s that currently reside in the car. Cliff provided me a suitable rebuild kit and also kindly repaired inlet threads, modified idle circuit, re bushed and pressure tested carb. I soaked all the pieces-parts in Berryman parts cleaner and lo and behold lost all part's original plating. I have <not> cleaned air horn, body or base yet. I'm not super concerned that carb looks brand new so I'm wondering a good way forward here? If I use mineral spirits on body parts and rebuild w/o plating smaller parts they'll rust right? I would consider having stuff zinc plated if I knew who to call. Some thoughts'd be appreciated. Thanks, mike MA |
