Does anyone know what the CFM rating on my stock 84 Quadrajet on my L69 305 is?

Around 750 cfm, if fully capable (see the Tech Articles to determine that - basically that the AV opens all the way, which was typical with the HO versions).

How much your engine can use - that's a completely different question. The good news is the q-jet "adjusts" itself via the AV so that it only flows what the engine can use.
