Carter Quadrajet question..

I have a 1977 Ford LTD Wagon with a 400 and a stock 2bbl carb. Im wondering if there is a way to use a Carter Quadrajet carb I got off of a 1970 small block chevy? Or would it not be worth the trouble?

Thanks

You can use it on a 4 barrel intake on an adapter, accelerator and transmission kickdown would require fabrication. They are popular with guys who off road, fuel starvation on hill climbs aren't as bad as with the Holley's, but on your application, I'd not bother.
