The problem is finding one for a Chevy engine that has the integral choke in the carburetor. Most of the OEM Chevy carbs have a divorced choke mounted to the manifold heat riser passageway. I have used a carb for a Buick 350 at times, and converted the choke cover to the electric heated type. Don't use the gasket under the cover- - - -it prevents the heater coil from getting a ground, and plug off the vacuum port to prevent a constant leak. Route the voltage through an oil pressure switch so the choke heat shuts off in case the engine stalls during warmup. Jerry
