Q-jet - Smaller primaries, bigger secondaries. Means better driveability and economy from the primaries, more flow capability from the secondaries (but will only use as much as you need).
Edelbrock Thunder - It's shiny.

Second the Q jet. I have had a few but on my boat I really dug in to her. WOW what a carb. When idling around she sips fuel. But when I give he the honk she moves. Just as tuneable as any other carb out there.
