Getting ready to order a Holley 950 HP for the Dart and I started to to look at the Quick Fuel carbs. What's your opinion and are they worth the extra money?

Quickfuel costs less @ Summit. I like the contour of the Quickfuel main body better for air flow entry.


Yeah, it's got a smallblock.

Yes, they are well worth the extra $...Not just the main body is contoured better, but the squirters, throttle blades, linkage are all slightly altered, and when its all combined, it really adds up. Fit and tolerences are better than any Holley I have had, and for what Holley gets for one, they should be better. I have had Holley metering blocks that were so pourous, you couldn't use them, yet they charge top dollar..No thanks. Ohhh and QFT has awesome customer support, how about Holley?

Dumb question, but, do they still use standard Holley squirters for tuning purposes? Will my standard Holley tuning kit still work?

they will build it to fit your combo..will not be a fit all carb..all they can do though summit is take a guess at what it might fit on..

I ordered 1 from them direct and they said some of the things that they would change is they plugged both power valves and square jet plus they richened the idle circuit and it is a Q series 950
