Edelbrocks Q Jet is an 850. I thought buick made an 815 in the early 70's

Edelbrocks AFB is so similar to the carter that the tune up and rebuild kits are interchangable. AFB's are great. They dont have the support to do infinite tuning like in the old days But if you search edelbrock or some of the dedicated vendors they have the parts to get it set up right and easy. its an easy carb, dual quads are even cooler.

You can down load a set up guide from E's website. No need for quackery or witchcraft.

why not Holley's?
