Thermoquad
« on: April 05, 2017 - 10:44:44 AM »
I have a 1973 challenger with a 360 that has a 2 barrel carb. I would like to convert to a 4 barrel and use a thermoquad carb. When I had my 70 340 Cuda, I had a thermoquad and it ran great. Does anyone have experience with a 360 with this carb?  Thanks

my impression is they are more trouble than they are worth.
But others swear by them.
I'd go Holley.
72 Cuda, owned 25 years. 496, with ported Stage VI heads, .625 in solid roller, 254/258 at .050, 3500 stall, 3.91 rear. 850 Holley DP, Reverse manual valve body.

1999 Trans Am, LS1, heads, cam, headers, stall, etc! Love to surprise the rice rockets with this one. They seem so confident, then it's "what the heck just happened?"

Thanks, I know they used to leak if you didn't replace the o-rings when you rebuild them.

The TQ is OK & very tunable If they are in good condition
