My 66 327/350 L79 driver had a Holley carb on it with an electric choke when I bought it several years ago. A while back I found a rebuilt correct carb and have been waiting for the excuse to change it. The old carb gave up and when I tried to put the new one on I discovered there was no choke mechanisim on the manifold. (Choke stove?) The manifold has the correct casting number on it according to the TM&JG.
Is this something that can be retrofit or is it that while I have the correct casting manifold, it is the wrong part? I've looked at the shop manuals and I can see where it is supposed to be. There appears to be no provision for it on my manifold.
In the meantime, I put a rebuilt carb of the same type with an electric choke on it and am enjoying the top-down weather.
What's the story?
Thanks
