It will with an adapter plate. I'd see if Holley shows something on their website or if Mr. Gasket makes something. I've put a Holley on a BBC spread bore intake so it shouldn't be any trouble to do the reverse.

yea Jimmy, I've been looking at what's on the market. The brand names all carry what I need. The Mr. Gasket piece looks to be my choice. Thanks....

The Mr. Gasket ones I've seen don't seal very well for the underside of the q-jet, and doesn't offer enough butterfly clearance underneath. After messaging Summit they recommended this one. I ordered it but haven't tried it yet. It looks like it will be close clearance for the butterflies, may have to work them over with a burr bit.
