This company rebuilt and restored mine. Harms Auto does a good job too.

It wouldn't work with this mopar adapter ?
I had no issues hooking the throttle up in my truck.
It is a manual so no kick down issues.
I am pretty sure a member here davebonds got his kick down to work.
I don't disagree with you at all, but whether it's a squarebore or spreadbore carb, you absolutely can over carb your engine. The engine will use what it needs with that set up, but it may still be more than it needs. Just sayin. He's already bought it so it's null and void.

Do you have any pictures to show how you did it? I could have probably cobbled something to make it work but felt I shouldn't have to do that on a brand new carb.

I just installed a DC mechanical six pack setup that flows a true 1050 cfm or so on my 365ci sb it totally shreads the drag radials and revs up quick! I don't put much stock in that old cfm calculation better to use common sense.
you sure you know what your talking about?Sorry, no 365cid will ever flow 1050CFM (but your carbs may on a test bench, one barrel at a time, then added up) Reason is it cant produce the vacuum to pull 1050 across 6 bbls. a six pack was actually rated closer to 770CFM on a 340. not dissing the motor, just physics. You get good torque because the velocity the 6bbls can produce. Read Vizard's "Super tuning carbs". Buddy had a Buick Wildcat with one of their large inch motors, it ran a 600 Carter stock! And it ran it very well. TQ's and AVS as well as QJ's and Predator all are demand carbs, forgiving on motor size, AFB's a little less forgiving and Holley Vacuums are adaptable with their spring setups. Holley mechanicals are hardest to dial in. 1200 CFM TBI EFI is another beast entirely, doesnt matter what it flows as it doesnt have to vacuum draw metered fuel.
You really should read up more on carburetors and how they work before makin senseless statements. Rumblefish was dead on with his explanation to you. The fact that you don't buy it is not his fault, it's your stupidity.
heres a few picks of it on the center carb of course painted black, but you can see how the kickdown attaches also, but if you were using the new demon carb that is kind of like the old t-quad i don't know for sure. I see where on your PDF it just shows a stud like a old quad would use.Do you have any pictures to show how you did it? I could have probably cobbled something to make it work but felt I shouldn't have to do that on a brand new carb.

This link is a copy of the instructions that I had and it says nothing about the adapter you are speaking of. The tech help people at Demon said nothing about it either.
So I was wrong. I didn't know that tq's were designed that way. I forgot this was a forum designated for experts that know everything, and not a place for learning. I don't think my post was senseless, and I don't think it called for such a disrespectful response. Rusty, I've heard about you and you know your way around a carburetor. Rumble, you were correct. I was wrong. You guys satisfied? More petty name calling coming my way? Seriously, it's hard enough to find a decent forum to call home, but when a guy isn't 100% correct on a subject, let the flaming begin? That's a little disheartening. Cool, I learned something today. Thanks guys.
