Carter Thermoquads ~ 'More General Information'

Fratz,

You jumped over me by 10-Years, going all the way up to 1981.

What are you, Pete Townsend with the way you leap.

"Squeeze Box"

#9314

Was off the 1981 '360' Dodge Truck.

Primary ....... 1 3/8" {1.375"} ............. Venturi = 1.063
Secondary .... 2 1/4" {2.250"}

These units came thru with
Primary Jets ......... .095"
Secondary Jets ..... .110"

Metering Rods ........ #2210 ...... .069" {Economy} ~ .045" {Power}

These later units came thru with the 'ESA' {Electronic Spark Advance}.

The rear inlet-tube was re-positioned to the rear-center.

And I believe, the 'adapter' for the rear-base port for the vent-hose was replaced by a Fuel-Bowl vent-port.

Though advertised by 'Carter Industries' at {750 to 800 CFM's},
it was rated at closer to 737 CFM's.

This year Thermoquad had 'oodles' of Emission Adapters and Ports.

Personally,

Not my favorite 'Thermoquad in the Barrel'.

As for placing it on a 'Performance Small-Block'.

The 1981 Thermoquads are the 'most complex' and 'least desireable'
units.

I will say 'NO'.
