I have this new thermoquad made for a International 345 engine, think it'll would be a good candidate for a 340 automatic?

It's never been ran, think it'll be OK to run like it is? I haven't ran one since 1978 or so. Do you think it's worth swapping out my great(what I think is great) running edlebrock 1405?

Any tips??




What about it fitting on my victor 340 intake manifold?

Should be ok, I would feel better pulling it apart to make sure no spiders or crap will keep my needle and seat from sealing.
Also the accelerator pump piston might be dry if leather I would check that out. Should be better than the eddy when tuned in. Good luck!

Might be a challenge getting the k/d linkage to adapt.

Think your biggest issue will be linkage for throttle and kick down.

Check and be sure the bowl vent in rear is open many TQ ran electric bowl vents By the way I have a new box Chrysler reman TQ that may work. if all you are looking for is looks. A chrysler Q jet is another option and those can be made to run real well

An 800cfm throttle shaft from a used Mopar TQ would be a good swap.

What's the number on the back driver side bottom? That will get the jet and rod sizes.
