Thoughts??

Not that familiar with divorced choke -

up north I think I'd want an electric choke in the winter especially.

But the price is great and it looks good....

 

[abenson90]

Well i dont really drive it in the winter just start it once a month to get things moving.

Good choice ! you can add elect choke later if you want to ..:texas: give mountain man a call, he always adds electric choke ..

 

[abenson90]

I didnt know you could do that. Its on sale right now so i think i will jump on it. Thanks guys!

you should find something like that... its not a rebuild.. and it fits intake. not a fan myself of re-manufactured items.. I mean come on.. it was once broke.. :-( (fail) buy new.!

 

[EdontheBeach]

That one is a manual choke anyways.

I have a Mountain Man Quadrajet !! He does great work !!

 

[mrblanche]

If you want to stick with the QJ, I hear Mountain Man does great work. If I were buying a new carb, I think this is what I'd go with:

The divorced choke is when the choke spring is in the intake manifold. Bought one by mistake found it to be very different months later when I went to install it. Sits in the garage now.

ya know you sure offer up lots of funny quotes but not offering any help----
i was at least offering a member a viable option-:beer:

The divorced choke works fine when the parts are new. The rod from the choke assembly is required to use the climatic spring & cover that goes over it. Tweaking the bends in the choke rod is how it's adjusted.....very simple. Many parts stores sell the climatic spring that sits in the little cavity on the manifolds made for it, and also the cover.

x2 Mountain man. He rebuilt mine.

i just bought/installed a new summit brand carb,650 and it performs bad ass!? the price was right also at 239.00 to the door,all this along with the color scheme i have in my el,'s ebay.

 

[aeilenstein]

lcochino,
Doesn't Summit's carb carry a 600 cfm rating? I purchased one from them a couple years ago that was a 600. The only other option was the 750 cfm. Just wondering??
