That's what he recommended to me when we talked. I just couldn't swing the $'s at the time. And he was 6-8 weeks out back then. I threw on an out of the box Q-1000

What's cool about Dale is he told me what part # 950 to buy and said he'd talk me though some mods I could do myself. I just got a deal on the 1000, but have always "wondered" lol

you ordered a 4150 super vic?
For some reason I thought you had a 4500?

For my car I'll be going with the 4500 regardless and getting a dual bolt pattern baseplate on the carb or using an adaptor spacer.
