Hello,
sorry its me again .... Does anyone know if you can still get quadrajet carbs with altitude compensation built in.
Wanting to spend time in much higher elevations when we get up and running. Seemed like that could save on gas, and perhaps less engine problems, as the air/gas mixture would be altered. Not got enough cash for fuel injection, so perhaps that would be a temp solution, if available....

cheers and beers



I see you are in Florida probably around sea level. I live at 4700 ft and have the stock jetting in my Quadrojet ,it runs pretty much the same as sea level but maybe a little less performance due to the elevation. I climb 9000 ft pases and it doesn't falter so if you aren't planing to go up to Pikes Peak or other high places I wouldn't worry too much.
