I didn't do this. The previous owner installed the Edelbrock. I have never heard an issue with the Thermo-quad other than the resin body can crack or warp. I agree I like the TQ too. I had it on my 76 Cordoba with Lean Burn and never a problem.9077s is a 1977 high performance 400 TQ it should have 4098 primary jets, 5143 secondary jets, and 2159 rods (.070 x .062 x .040) should work perfect if in good shape. Not sure why you would swap out an 850 cfm carb for a 650 cfm carb. the TQ is one of the sweetest carbs ever made. Bowl problems are rarely encountered and easily fixed unless someone has messed up the primary jet inserts.
It looks like my 1906 is stock with orange springs and 70-37 rods. I am assuming since it has default rods and springs that the jets are too.
The rods look clean no deposits. This thing looks brand spanking new.
Is there anyone from Edelbrock on here that can tell me what number to calibrate this to for my 400 meaning springs, rod and jets from default?
