What would be the best Q-jet model for my carb'd 3.8. Im looking for somehing I can tune-up. Also I want one that has a good balance of performace and econ. The 1978's didn't come with a computer so it will have to be mechincal.

Is this a turbo car? If so, I think those Q jets had unique shaft seals and such?
