You might be able to do it successfully yourself, maybe.

i've done them before but this one was really crusty. i didn't want to break anything so i sent it to a pro.. if it needs anything not that it should from here on out i can take of it.. i'm gonna buy a kit just to have..
 
Joe, Is that a small primary TQ?

@rumblefish360 can you tell if thats is a small primary one? what do the small ones measure??

Hi Rumble....I am Ken Manley from Ontario, Canada
Well hello there Ken. I’m assuming your rebuilding carbs for a living/side gig? And you have a handle on the old TQ’?
I think you should leave a link to your sevices and let the people know!

Do so Participate here at FABO! Looking forward to your expertise and help as many others surely would be.
 
Thermoquad !
I was reading a little about them.
Two timed-vacuum ports are provided on the front of the carburettor base.
Is this one of the reasons why some Holley guys hate this carb ?

Guys hate the carb because they don’t know how to tune them. When they are right they are awesome.

I used to believe all the bad stuff people said about them. What changed my mind was my last LRE. I know a boy who loves these things and he went through mine and fixed a lot of little things some jack did to it. Holy crap did that truck run nice when the carb was right.

Now when ever I see one cheap I grab it. Bought quite a few $5 ones over the years. :).

Hopefully the one I just had done runs as good as my old one. Had a different guy do this one because it was in such sad shape from sitting so long.

I agree. A link or something would be nice. I didn’t see anything on the Facebook page either.

Come on spring! I'm dying to get back into something.

Rumble, I do not have a web site.
I do it as a hobby and I tinker when I am bored at night.

Anyone is welcome to contact me on facebook messenger or here or on For b bodies, or facebook chats.
