Yes! You Can PAINT Your CARBURETOR

Painting a carburetor is an option but not the best solution. Unless, like in my case, you want to use your Quadrajet for decor. And to that end, I completely restored it.
So please don't misunderstand; I not only painted my 4-barrel carb but also completely rebuilt it so it could be put back into service immediately if so desired.
And while the durability of paint versus Zinc chromate, for example, is not even worth discussing, I am confident this one would look good for a long time if reinstalled in a vehicle and cared for.
Oftentimes, old parts such as carburetors end up collecting dust in boxes and are allowed to deteriorate for years. And the truth is that rebuilding or even restoring a carburetor is not that difficult, and also very rewarding.
Some of these carbs are so beautiful they can be used-as I chose to do-as decorations.
So don't trash your old Quadrajet. Restore it!
Thank you for watching! 🙂👍🏻

DISCLAIMER: Even though I like to wrench on Corvettes and most of my videos are of a how-to nature, I am not responsible nor liable should you decide to follow my musings on the subject.
The repairs and other work I do are for my own benefit and entertainment, and even though my videos may sound and appear to give technical how-to advice, that's not my intention.
Working on a vehicle is inherently dangerous. If you're not confident, qualified, or lack the tools to do the job correctly and safely, hire a licensed mechanic.

Not at this time. My Vette uses a 1705 Qjet that has been modified with electric choke, so it won't work on my '76. For the time being, it sits on a shelf in my living room since it looks awesome and I can do those types of decorating decisions. lol 😆. Plus, one of my C3 Corvette buddies may need to borrow it at some point, so I might as well keep it at the ready just in case. Thank you for watching! 🙂👍🏻

I appreciate your channel since I have a 4 speed 76.Id like to share the modification I did and that was I purchased a 80 L-82 dual snorkel air cleaner assembly. The single intake was something that bothered me and after a little retrofit the dual air intake was installed by myself,I noticed the moment I started the engine it had a overall smoother idle and the first drive after warming up it just felt like the right thing to do. I'm debating on removing the restrictive Catalytic converter but I appreciate the ease of no pipe in the way next to the shifter linkage. Paid 300$ for air cleaner assembly with passenger side duct and larger air intake. Just thought to share and thought it would be interesting to see you do a video on doing this and seeing if you would enjoy the results as much as I have.

Hello and thanks for sharing this idea, which makes total sense as these cars are always gasping for air. And the engineers finally figured an efficient way to feed additional air to the carburetor with the dual-snorkel system. It would be an interesting experiment for sure and I will research it a little more. I particularly like the ability to keep the car factory-looking yet updated. Thank you for sharing 😊👍🏻

You won't be disappointed as you will get cooler denser air from the intake mounted front and central as apposed to the air warmed up on top of the engine. I look forward to seeing that red beauty enjoying better breathing.

Book shelf jobber is all good.. But one being use is a no go for me.. Freaking marine carbs are painted and its a pain in the azz to soak if need be. Hrs of stripping and boiling in water to remove all the melted paint from the circuits of the carb!
