7tonemonte Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 I just went with an edelbrock 600 elec choke and intake. Im off to work,but I can get the part #s for you when I get home tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonteFox89 Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 I may be able to help in this aspect! but umm, I'm not sure what engine you're running...  but I can tell you my setup. 355 with a mild street cam. 600 Edelbrock (1406) carb (tuned for fuel efficiency oddly enough) with electric choke (simply run one wire from anything that starts up when your ignition is on and running, then run a ground), also aluminum edelbrock intake Looks a LOT like that  I will gladly get picture when I get back from Indy today!

bigscaht Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 judgeing from where you live..u really dont need an electric choke...get a manual choke 600 cfm eddy carb and a the rmp air gap intake...that will work real good on you motor with a stock cam and If u decide to upgrade the cam..thats a cool intake to have...lol thats what I run and it works great!

Mike 57 Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 If you go with an electric choke, all you need is power the engine is grounded and the carb grounds through the engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MGD72Monte Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Not sure what engine you have but if its a 350, a low rise spread bore intake of the type shown above will work fine. For carb, I have a Holley 600cfm model 4160 list number 1850 manual choke four barrel vacuum secondaries. This set up will work with stock and slightly above stock cams. Â Good luck with your decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MonteFox89 Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 if I remember correctly... I have it hooked to my radio! but I can't be precise at the moment because my wife is driving it to work at the moment.... but yeah, either radio fuse or ACC fuse... Â I consider the radio not a bad choice because... well... the radio only comes on when the key is on and stays on while the key is on. So why wouldn't it be a good candidate? buncha trial and error for me a lot of the time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigtankjones Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 I run a Holly 750- 4160, Vac secondary on My Big Block with a manual choke. But I don't even need to use it up here in Michigan. Even when I fire it up in the winter time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
