The only info I can find is the 14-25 has an electric choke (are these good?) but cannot find anything on whether the jets are the same.
Thanks,

Also, do the Stromberg BXOV electric chokes work well?
Thanks again for the help, slowly I am learning more about these old trucks.

Did you ever get an answer to your question?
I am considering the exact same thing except I want to put it on a GMC 228 with Hydra-matic | | | | | Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 1,847 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 1,847 | the weber carbs Tom Langdon sells have electric chokes, he said they will work on 6 or 12 volts, and should work fine on a dual set up. I realize they are different carburetors, but I am not sure the electrical part knows that. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 29,269 Bubba - Curmudgeon | | Bubba - Curmudgeon Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 29,269 | I am using dual Carter-Weber electric choke carburetors on a 6v 261. The electric chokes (and the carburetors) work flawlessly (except for the two carburetors being too small for a 261.
It would be nice to hear from Stromberg BXOV electric choke users regarding the BXOV's electric choke.

And I would not want to mix them on a dual carb application (see lines 2 and 3 in my signature).

Good carburetion is fuelish hot airThe most expensive carburetor is the wrong one you attempt to modify.

I have one of each 14-22 and 14-23 and a few misc Stromberg 1 barrels.
It sounds like getting the 14-23 to match the 14-22 would be more complicated than just putting in a different jet or power.valve
My 53 GMC has the original Hydra-matic and I kind of wanted to keep the electric choke. I guess I'll keep looking for a second 14-23
Thanks for the help | | |
