Thread: Rochester quadrajet carb on a L.R 3.5 V8

I wouldn't use a quadrajet if useing LPG, as the carbs fall to bits, a holley will have no issues due to the simpleness of the components used


I was always a hater of Holleys, till I modified one myself, once they're done properly they are good, especially with LPG

I'm a convert, thanks to your old man

Oh now you decide holleys are ok, man you gave me some bagging over my comments on holleys .

Rochy as said is a better carb but for the cost of a manifold i would just mill down a stock manifold and use either a 350 holley or a 2brl stromberg of a holden 6/ V8 since you will run lpg most of the time.

I can't be right, ALL the time

Personally I think they're ALL crap, EFI all the way

...Nah from me too.

I was driving mine up some hills the other day in high gears thinking there was no way the 4.6 would've come close at these revs, and keepng up would've meant single figure fuel mileage

So it's a no from me too!

LS1 will chew up and spit out, piddly little rover motors and return MUCH better economy.............but the range, oh how I love the range of the diesel
