I recently purchased a quadrajet 600 off my wife's uncle. It's been rebuilt, and has a new electric choke assembly on it. I'm not sure where all the vaccum ports are, so if someone could post up a diagram or something, I'd really appreciate it!



Thanks

I understand that these pics are not the best, but I thought I would post them in the off chance that they help.

That should help me out quite a bit. Thanks!


I won't be using the hot air choke, EGR, or the charcoal canister, but it still helped.

Just a normal cap on the end of those will work nicely. I've done that for mine in the past......

GM liked to play around with what those ports did from carb to carb. Craig's pictures are a good starting point but DON'T assume anything is an absolute certainty with a QJet.

When it doubt, start the engine and test to see what port have vacuum when.

Good info. I recently purchased a quadrajet 600 w/ a manual choke for my "temporary 350"; it was the only one available at short-notice. If possible, could someone post a diagram (or equivalent) to assist me w/ installing the manual choke cable...and some of the vacuum connections? I'd appreciate it! Thanks.
