Hi David
I sent my original Qjet to Cliff Ruggles from Cliff's High Performance in Mount
Vernon Ohio. I had checked with several sources (mostly from our list here)
and never heard a bad word about Cliff except that you have to expect it will
take about 6 months. Mine went in November and it was in the queue for last
week. At this point I can't give you a personal opinion one way or another.
Because it was going to take so long anyway, I am having Cliff replate and
rebuild and I think it should be about $500.

Has anybody here ever dealt with "Guaranteed Carburetors" in Largo Florida?
They have come very highly recommended to me by a reputable local garage, but I
wanted to see if anybody here has had experience with them (good or bad). They
will completely rebuild my original Q-Jet for $218 and guarantee it for life. I
don't have the time or the expertise to do this one myself, so I want to send
it out. Any insight on this company or other rebuilders would be greatly
appreciated.
Also, my '67 convertible is sitting very high in the front, so I bought the
Eaton coil springs from NPD for a stock 400 w/o air, which I hope will cause it
to sit lower. I have a 455 w/ aluminum intake and no a/c. Anyway, when I change
the springs if the car does sit a couple of inches lower, will I need to have
it realigned?
I am always very appreciative of the great advice and information that is so
freely shared here! Many of my questions get answered before I get around to
asking!
Thanks, David
