switching from vacuum to mechanical secondaries
Is there anyway that I can rig up my stock quadrajet so its mechanical secondaries instead of vacuum? Just curious..

If you do remove the air valve from the carb you'll have to max out the acellerator pump and you'll also have to run a very good converter to avoid the bog that you'll get.
If you have a big engine and light-weight car you can probably get away with it no problem.
If you have a 305 in a 3300+ lb car, then you'll probably not be happy with the results.
