Quote: if the thermoquad is really so much better than a holley carb in fuel economy for the daily driver and also performance on the track, what would the reason be that so many people prefer something other than a thermoquad? surely there must be a reason that 99% of people choose something else isn't there? can that many people be wrong?
Probably the same reason why Chevy guys think a small belongs in everything...because it is all they know. Most people don't wanna take the time to set the carb up right. So when it doesn't perform the way they thought it would they just ditch it for the Holley. Same with the QJ. People complain about the bog in those too, but you can tune it out of them also. Only thing with the QJ is they never made as large of a cfm as the thermoquad. 800 was the biggest they had.
