The Quadrajet is a four barrel carburetor with a "spread bore" throttle plate, made by the Rochester Products Division of General Motors. Its first application was the new-for-1965 Chevy 396ci engine .
The 4.4 L; 267.8 cu in (4,389 cc) engine had the 350's crankshaft stroke of 3.48 in (88.4 mm) and the smallest bore of any small-block, 3.5 in (88.9 mm), shared with the 200 V6 introduced a year earlier.

[citation needed] The last major carburetor design by Rochester was the Varajet II, [citation needed] essentially a Quadrajet halved lengthwise, [citation needed] and was one of the few successful progressive 2-barrel carburetors.
