quadrajet secondary help

my carb is missing all the vacuum stuff and linkage for the secondarys , my question is can i get ANY q-jet and use it for the parts? or does it have to be the same one i have? all i know about it is, its from a 1977 chevy with a auto trans, non cc. also what goes in the hole on the manifold where the aluminum patch is?

Re: quadrajet secondary help

It appears that the choke and everything attatched to it are gone. You should be able to get the parts needed from a carb of similar style IIRC, or you might consider a reman or something as there are alot of missing parts. The block off plate is covering the EGR ports on that manifold.

ok thanks , i will probably just get a junkyard carb because i dont have extra the money for a reman. carb. the car runs good (could be better)as-is so if i cant fix it i will just save for a reman.

Would getting rid of the EGR valve really do anything?
