Absolutely loved my TQs when I was running 340s. Pulled one off my last 340 and put on a 3310. Seat-of-the-pants dyno didn't notice any difference so I put the TQ back on.
I think the reason many folks don't like them is that a Holley is just so much easier to work on although once you tinker on a TQ for a while, they are not much harder. Granted, high HP engines probably need a Holley(s). Can't recall ever seeing a big inch stroker with a single TQ or 2 TQs on a tunnel ram but that would be cool.
Had my '65 Valiant project not fell through I would have been running a 360 with a TQ.
