Need a real expert to build my thermoquad
I have three in pieces
One smogger from 360
One from a 400
One from a 440 motor home non smogger
If you know someone that is really good with them I would appreciate a heads up as well as what I would expect to pay I would appreciate responses from those who have first hand experience
 
Here is an old guide on thermoquads that used to float around on the net.

Jon Hardgrove.

The Carburetor Shop. Eldon, Missouri. He has a website. TQs are his favourite carb.
Summit sells recond units. I ordered a 6000 series carb, 850, should be here soon. Reasonable price, too. Might be another way to go.
 
I have a phone number for David (demonsizzler) if you want to try it. PM me if you want it. I don't know if it's still good.
 
Last I spoke with David, he was retiring from a lot of things in life to refocus on the important things in life starting with his family. I wished him the best and he told me to get a hold of him next time I’m get myself down into Ga. for some good Mexican food so we could shoot the **** over dinner.

If you’d into doing Mods to the TQ, I only know a few. There not hard. But at there size, cfm capacity, there is hardly a need for most engines.

Now where’s my favorite new Aussie? @Bewy
He has gone further than I have seen anyone post on line with these TQ’s.
@Hysteric also has a good deep well of knowledge. The think very much so these two good fellas can really help!
I was certainly paying attention when these two guys were chatting! Oh yea!

Thanks will check it out
 
these guys did the one for my lil red express.. very happy with the results.. called harms at the time and he was expensive and would have taken a lot longer for me to get it back.. think once he got the carb it was going to be 8 weeks for him to turn it around, then add the time it would take to get from the east coast all the way to the west coast and back.....

i didn't care about having the original finish. just wanted it to run as it should.. it was in bad shape from sitting a lot of years...
