    Rochester Q jet

    Sorry to bug again, but the push is on to get my car mechanically fit before the out of province plates expire. My carb is shot and needs overhauling (more than a kit, worn out throttle bushes etc.) and I found this place near me on-line...

    http://www.carbrebuilders.com/services.htm

    The price for rebuilding my carb # 7028240 MD (which seems to be the original carb) is around $225.00 Cdn. Dollars. This seems to be a good deal to me.
    Does anyone have past experience with this company? They seem very knowledgeable on the phone and I like the idea of getting the factory carb redone as opposed to an exchange reman.
    Any thoughts

    Carb Rebuilders Inc.

    This place isn't too far from me. They have been in business for decades. They were originally located in Toronto ON on Eugene Ave. They have rebuilt the carb for my '67 Ford Fairlane and '67 Buick Wildcat. They have rebuilt carbs for my friends for years, which is how I heard about them.

    Good people, quality work requiring no comebacks. I will say you will need to tweak the carb settings when you get it back to get the best performance from it.

    Hope this helps...
