You are all great resources! I got my exhaust pipes remade locally. Sounds great now.
Next problem: Manual choke linkage to the carb.
The carburetor has a vertical up/down motion for the manual choke but the cable comes out in a horizontal manner. Sigh.
I THINK the previous owner swapped out the ?original Quadrajet? for the Holley 4bbl that's on there now but there's no way to know when it was done.
She's a real cold starter ;-) for sure.
Any thoughts or suggestions on how/what to hook this cable up CORRECTLY so the manual choke works?
Thanks In Advance,
Chris
PS - Pics to come. I'm busy raiding the local salvage yard for interior parts which my wife keeps asking me 'What's that for? Aren't you going to sell it next year?'
;-)
PPS - It's a 366ci in a 1971 C60 Short Dump and I still have to get a radiator overflow tank from somewhere and the 4 inch diameter breather hose for the air cleaner AND somehow the odometer cable (PITA because of the 2 speed rearend) AND the temp sender. Hey - at least the oil pressure, vacuum, and gas gauges work ! | | | | | Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 8,597 Riding in the Passing Lane | | Riding in the Passing Lane Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 8,597 | The 60 series didn't come with a Q-jet. It most likely came with the Holley thats on there but possiply with a large Roch. 2 barrel. If the holley is a manual choke it should have bracket & swivel for the cable. Put a photo in & one of us can probably recognize it.
They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though.

(I know - the auto choke is still connected but it really is not working.) Looked up your suggested part and YES! the linkage parts are in the kit! Thanks Sims!
