    I guess with a square bore - spread bore adapter plate.

    Yes, with an adapter absolutely.  BUT, Q-Jets are fairly application specific.  My guess is you will get lackluster results at best without a fair amount of tuning.  I personally like the Q-Jet.  Its a great performance carb, IF you know how to tune it.  Do you know what its from? 

    Also, if you have an automatic trans it won't have the right linkage, and I don't know if adapters for that are available.
