But I heard that the reason the OEM dropped the TQ is because Carter dropped the TQ ....because they saw the handwriting-on-the-wall ...that carbs were going to be DINOsaurs in no time.



I don't buy that. If carter had chrysler, a large OEM customer they would not just say 'too bad' to chrysler, shut down the thermoquad factory and destroy all the tooling for it. The notion of the thermoquad factory burning down seems a lot more plausable to me.
