I'm like everyone else... have a big steaming pile of tq's which I can't bring myself to throw in the trash.
BUT.. this thread does get a guy thinking....
I believe the main reason the tq didn't get the popularity is because they are a pain in the junk to open up and tune or fix problems. Way to much finicky linkage and screws and garbage.
If you wanted to start from scratch, its a labour of love. By the time your done , if you sell it you might recoup your money you have into the carb kit.

It is a good design, but could have used a couple more mill into engineering.

Good point!! When do you want to "rid" yourself of that pile of TQ's? Seriously,
there are combos built with the TQ (or TQ's - yes Scotty, I need more power! ) that run very strong. BTW they are NO HARDER to work on than a Holley.
