As of right now my 87 iroc is carb-less... I am really broke and heading to junk yards for a quadrajet to rebuild. My dizzy is not the original one, so I am looking for a non cc with electric choke and a spot for tv cable

So I am hoping someone has advice on finding one

 

Any 74 (?) and up quadrajets should be what you are looking for. Almost any vehicle GM made came with them. You'll want to shy away from Buicks or any other straight inlet quads.

I'd go hit up the F-Bodies and the trucks. Just make sure it isn't a feedback carb.

 

One thing that you probably already know spaigo, is to make sure and order a float with the carb. kit. It is a separate item.

 

If the computer harnesses are still there, you might as well get a computer carb and distributor while you're at the JY. Much more likely to have a desirable outcome that way.

 

Not really. Many of them had hot air chokes until the very late 70's and early 80's. You can convert them to electric, but that's another expense.

 

Went to yard got 2 just in case... so if I f it up I will be good or if I need parts. The guy gave ne both for 50 bux total

 

Finally had time to install... car starts up now but took it around block when I tired giving it alot of gas it about stalles out and I pretty much lose brakes completely... please someone help... the quadrajet is out of a 73 vette could it be cause rods r to small or jets to big? If so why does it cause me to lose brakes?

 

Sounds like the real problem with your car isn't the carb at all, but rather, fuel delivery.

Put your old carb back on and try a new fuel pump. About $10 and 5 minutes to replace if you're slow like me; more like 2 if you're more like normal people.
