I hate to have to agree with Ed, but he is right. QJets are a bit different, 
but VERY versatile and quite potent. Why the heck do you think FORD used 
them on the 427 CobraJet? Those tiny primaries give great throttle response 
and good economy when you are behaving yourself and keeping your foot out of 
it. When you do put your foot down, those vacuum-actuated secondaries (don't 
forget that SU carbs are also vacuum-actuated) kick in just exactly as much 
as required and feed those horses the stuff they need. Properly tuned they 
are much better than most Holleys. Hotrodders simply hate to use a stock 
carb. QJets can be adapted to anything from 200CID up to 500CID with a few 
jets and a handful of needles (sound familiar?).
