This is what the auction says:

This is a used Rochester Quadrajet 4 bbl carburetor. I do not know what it came out of or what condition it is in other than the throttle plates are good and it is not frozen up. Carb probably needs a kit. It is being sold "AS IS". The numbers on the carb are: 704519, 0485, 17050819, 7042897 and 16.

Hurry 3 hours left!

That's a non electronic carb.

If your just looking to convert your 2 barrell to a 4 barrel, you'll want an electronic carb. A trip to most junkyards will get you a 4 barrel intake and electronic Qjet. Just find a 81/84 4.1 Buick V6. They are fairly easy to find.

What about this intake with the q-jet elec carb?

That's a factory 4.1 intake that has been polished. It doesn't have the thermostat housing, EGR and all the little fittings you would get if you bought a complete carb/intake assembly.

The junkyard by me sells the carb/intake for ~$75 and the carb can be exchanged if it's bad.

The shipping charges usually kill any good on-line deals for haevy items IMO.

Can you give me a couple of days to get the money together and maybe ship it to me?

 

[b4black]

I'm more than willing to help out, but sorry, I'm not going to the junkyard (even if it wasn't below freezing) to find, remove, purchase, box, and ship an intake/carb assembly. I think your missing my point. I'm suggesting you find a junkyard near you and get the catrb/intake.
