carb swap help
 
2 Attachment(s)
ok.. i have a 87 firebird with a 350 in it. i want to get a new carb for it, as the existing one is old, worn out, and gives me terrible throttle response. I dont have the time or skill to rebuild it myself, and want a quick easy swap/fix. from what i can guess, the existing carb is a Computer Command Control E4ME Quadrajet.. question is: can i go to a Street Demon, 625 cfm, 4-Barrel, Square Bore/Spread Bore, Electric Choke? it seems to me the hookups will all be the same, except for that Idle Mixture Control Solenoid plug on top front?

Not if you want a quick/easy fix.

suggestions then? would like to go to a demon or quick fuel..
does the idle mixture even need to be plugged in?
i have unplugged it in the past (mistakenly) and the car ran the exact same

That is not a CCC Q-jet.its a dual capacity pump carb.
