Rochester Quadrajet Restored Photos
 
Does anyone know who does Rochester Quadrajet restoration? And would there be any photos of correctly restored Qjets with the correct RP vacuum pull-off and original fuel line nut? Plus the right plating. Thanks

Only saw one Chevy Quadrajet in the photo gallery for Vintage Musclecar Parts or the site that was listed. Had the wrong vacuum pulloff. Correct silver plating on the butterfly valves. Quadrajet power in the past has plated everything with the gold dichro which is wrong


Still looking for photo showing the correct pull-off and fuel line nut


thanks

The photo of the Qjet on the engine is good. Right plating on the butterfly valves and the right finish on the carb studs and screws. Something like the Buick carb shown but need the right Chevy photos

Here are some photos of a 10k mile carb & intake removed from a 73 L82 Corvette at 13-14 months. (divorced choke clip in photo did not come into use until late 71)

I didn't work with the Quadrajets when I worked at Rochester Products, but I clearly remember all the different coatings they did inhouse for all the different parts. Lots of coating baths....

I will see about posting pics of the used carb I have that was used for education purposes.

But will need to take current pics.

Here you go. This carb was used at a local tech college.

This is probably as close to an original finish as you are going to find.

Thanks - That has the correct vacuum pull-off. Fuel line nut looks like the old period style also

bcmiller 05-04-2021 05:58 PM

Let me know if you pics of anything else.
