Quadrajet secondary rods

Looking to expand my collection. I need something that's got the body of a CG with the tip of a CX.
Rods I currently have: DA, CV, AK, CX, CG
Let me know what you have and what you want for them.
Thanks!

They can be turned down on a lathe, very carefully.

Does a cordless drill and bench grinder count as a lathe?

It depends on your abilities.

I are machinist.
Using paper for shims is how you know I'm a professional.

Just in case anyone thought I was joking about the grinder and drill..... needed a new hydroboost pushrod for a different master cylinder. Just a 3/8" rod with a radius and reduced diameter at one end and tapered at the other. Easy!

Separates the men from the boys. Adapt and overcome.

If you’re on the hunt for qjet parts, I can recommend Cliffs High Performance rebuild kits and quadrajets.com.

If you want a great rebuild, I suggest (and recommend) SMI in Huntington Beach.

Good stuff all around.
Chris
