Holley Identification
I am just starting to peel back the layers of WTF is going on here. Lol. I was wondering if anyone knows what Holley carb this is, guessing it is a c745, and point out anything else funky going on, besides the zip tied choke. I had to resize the pics, if you want/need the full resolution let me know.

No, That is a holley R40093,, 2 barrel Carburetor.. The RED TAG is from the rebuilder there in Canada...
The carb you have selected will not work without purchasing a intake manifold as well...
Manual choke is ok, You can work on the thermostatic Choke set up later down the road. Looks all their, just may not have been working correctly
Here is some other info for you >>>>>> https://www.carburetion.com/CarbNumb...?Number=R40093

Yes, Going from a 2 barr. carb to a 4 barr. carb will require a intake swap.....
it's kind of like try to use a single port intake on Dual port heads on a VW, as for reference...
We sure had fun with them VW's back in the day... 1835's, 2180's, and what knots... 09 distributors and good carbs like you mentioned as well as the IDS's... With a good old Rhino or Bus Trans. and if you got lucky, you did one of those cool turbo kits.
Now days they just throw a WRX motor in them.... Sheesh... Crazy fun !!!!
I miss them old "Bug In Days"

Those carbs get the stock engine work done... Maybe just try rebuilding it first and see if that gets it handled and back to running better...
Yes, Still having those swap meets all the time. The VW part has gotten a lot smaller that what you would remember... Kind of what i would call Tinny... We still have the Bug-In's here near me at Irwindale Drag Strip. Not as good as the old O.C.I.R. days, but still a good turn out... But your rite. a long drive from Phoenix AZ... But dam its get hot there!!! lol
Thats a cool old Bug... We like most all of them 1969 and back.... Did a few stock ones, a few Baja's, a few Hot Rods, Back in the day when parts was cheap... Hahahahahaha...
Anyway, Back to you truck... May need to tidy up some of the wiring also.... And back to the MSD, Yes it looks like it is not connected...
What is being used for the ignition system.. I dont see the normal ECU unit box?

Oh... So we only have a cold start drivability problem?
I think i see what some of the problem is... " As long as the choke opens and closes fully?"
On the opposite side of the carb is that 1/4-20 nut on the choke shaft..... It is suppose to have a lever and a rod that goes down to the Lower Step Cam. >>>> That is for the fast idle when you have the choke closed and partly open. (Question is, Do you still have those pieces?)

If you installed the Choke cable kit? The little lever may have come with it.... Then you can just make the rod with a coat hanger...
I'll see if i have a photo on my other PC when I get to the house...

There's so many shade tree mechanics going on I have almost no idea how this this is even running. Multiple open vacuum lines, things disconnected, and odd ball plugs.
I'm beginning to wonder if I need to either A) take it to a Mopar shop and rewire everything, or B) Slowly close the hood and backaway lol
Tbh I would almost rather gut most of this wiring and just have a basic running truck. Idk if that's even possible. Everything mechanical

If you can just find the lever that fits where the 1/2-20 nut is and a rod.. I think your cold start / run problem may be solved...
If this site works for you. you can get the general Idea of how that is hooked up... Not your carb but you can get the idea how its supposed to be working...
