Thermoquad Rods

Friend just picked up a TQ for $50. It is off a local Ford. These were used here right at the end of the carb era, when emissions were really tight. Some had 098 sec jets with 101 pri jets! So lean.
All these carbs needed to wake them up was some work with drill bits....
Buuut, they got removed & a properly jetted Holley was fitted and....surprise, surprise...performed better! Idiots.
So many of these carbs are in near new condition...& cheap.
