4 Barrel carburetor help.

Ok so its me again. I found a good used intake. Its a 4 barrel Square bore in like new condition. As i was looking at mine...my carbs choke runs off of the gas peddle it flips back and forth when you press the peddle....im not sure if this is a vacum choke or not but the Holley 4 barrels i looked at only offer electric or manuel chokes. I have looked at the manuel and i really dont wanna mount anything on the inside of my car and run through the fire wall....so therfore my opnly other option is an electric choke. Im needing info about these.

This is the carb im really thinking about getting. Im needing to know what id have to do to work the electrick choke.


thanks again.

Ok thats what i though. I was just reading about my current carb. Its called an automatic choke. The choke is closed at a cold start and as the engine warms the thermostat on it does something with a spring and opens up. Ill go ahead and get it and if something isnt right i can always send it back for another.
