There’s a U-Pull-It boneyard out in West Alexander, PA.  
I was only there once a few years ago but I remember seeing a bunch of Q-jets there, just laying around.  
If you need one rebuilt, I can help ya out with that. I have rebuilt MANY MANY of them and I know all the tricks.

I have a CC one, doesnt have vac advance provisions on it but will make the car start and move. Ran good when pulled a year ago and moved my car 3 weeks ago when I had to get the newer Q-Jet fixed. You can have it if you want it.

Q jets come in a gang of varietes. Roughly the 66-74 are similar, the 75-80s are similar, and the computer controlled ones from the 80s to 90. The 800 cfm didn’t come out till 71, and the 75 versions added an altitude control. The 800 version became more widely available after 75, but the secondaries were limited in opening to reduce cfm. The adjustmants became sealed too in the late 70s. Also, there were side inlets and front inlets. If you have a stock SBC intake, a front inlet won’t let the filter housing clear the thermostat housing. There is also a gang of different throttle hook-ups than can be changed by changing throttle shafts, or some welding (I tend to do that).

Q jets are cheap and rebuild kits are usually 'round $20.
