I have a 69 Lemans 350. It only has the Rochester 2 barrel card that came stock, but I really want a 4 barrel. I would like to stay with Rochester, but I don't know which model to get. I need to know which carb will fit into my car. Also, which intake manifold should I use? Edelbrock sells an aftermarket one, but I don't really want that. Is there anything else I need to do to my engine if I converted to a 4 barrel? where can I get all this stuff?

Thanks for the help!

Probably could pick up a cast iron 4bl manifold from that same model year on Ebay. Same thing on a quadrajet. Not sure powerwise what the car would pickup, probably not to much if the car is otherwise stock

Preferably you want a 68-70 stock 4bbl intake and carb. There's minor differences in vacuum connections, brackets and switches, but the intake and carb combo will bolt right on. It would be perfect if you could get the whole setup off a previously running car, then you wouldn't have to figure out all the detail stuff.

I agree, that's all you need for that engine. When you change over to the q-jet send me an e-mail, i will buy your 69 2bbl carb.
