Quadrajet is a name much like "positraction" to GM. It
designates the 4-bbl carb mainly made by Rochester - although Carter did get
into the act for awhile. It's a factory installed carb on most low to
medium performance engines. You don't say what year your 327 is, but I'd
almost bet it was available with a 4-bbl carb and probably a Rochester Quadrajet
at that. If you already have a QJ intake (two small primarys and two huge
secondaries), I'd simply go to a parts store and see what they have in a rebuilt
model for your particular year.
If
you can find a good one, they're as good (or better) on the street as any
aftermarket carb. GM used them for years on all models, not just
Chevrolet.

Subject: Re: [Chevelle-List] carbs.I am also looking to get a new carb/intake to replace the stock rochester on my 327. It's gonna be a driver, so I'm thinking something economical as well. When all of you speak of quadrajets, is that any quadrajet in general, or specific brand/model?
Thanks,
GIno
