ROHRT-- i like the way you think-- would it not be a violation of "purity standards" to shove a FiTech fuel injector in there?
To be honest, I came dang close to providing you the link to FiTech on my 1st reply here. I have saved them under my "Firebird" favorites just because my newer vehicles also cause me to go, "Hmmm, I wonder if a long term goal for my Firebird should be FI?"
But another idea is that, IF you have a real carb expert go through your OEM Q-Jet - those things really are relatively problem free from then on. I had my E-brock 1901 Q-jet clone rebuilt along with the engine and the only problem I have is today's fuels (with really low vapor pressure) evaporating out of the carb between journeys.
