I see the engine was built in Dysart, I am in Wloo/Cedar falls if the car is still sorta local.
I have a quadrajet off my 455 somewhere (it might be back home in MN) if you are looking for a spread bore carb, I wouldn't mind getting rid of it.
Another option if you still have a spreadbore intake is a spreadbore holley if you want the slightly easier tuning of a holley and parts.
However, a 1406 is a square bore. I'd stay with the edelbrock (if you have to) or go standard 1450/1460 series holley. A vacuum secondary carb is going to be better on an auto heavier street car.
Qjets are good for performance and economy if you have a good builder but if

Qjets are good for performance and economy if you have a good builder but if you already have a square bore intake I would stay with square bore and go 1460 holley. Easy to tune, good parts, every carb shop can do them.
I figured the car needed a bigger carb....previous owner had a 750 on it. Said it hauled *ss. But dealership took it off and put the 1406 on it. Figured they took it off cuz I got it cheap
