Sean Murphy Induction sells rebuilt Q Jets that are primo. He does all of the shaft bushings, etc. We have bought from him; they ask basic stuff about your engine and when you get the carb, you bolt it on and go. The thing is correct right out of the box.

I recommend these boys.

Thanks for all the replies.
I have ditched this old carburator in favor of a nicely rebuilt on from Jet performance. So far so good, it runs great now.
Still doing a bit of dialing in of the timing and distributor advance, but otherwise looking VERY good.

The main concern with all Q-jets is they warp horizontally (left to right) an can be straightened with patience and a bit of skill.There is no limit to what a man can do . . . if he doesn't mind who gets the credit. (Ronald Reagan)
Dammit, another good ol boy gone. Condolence to the family. RIP Mike
