Manual Choke Cable Location - proper parts etc
« on: August 28, 2015 - 10:12:41 AM »
Howdy!  My cuda doesn't have a choke but my carburetor is an Eddelbrock 1407 - which has a manual choke.   Sooo I figure I best install a choke cable  etc.   What do they look like normally and who'se is the best to use?

 They never used a manual choke from the factory so it is up to you how & where you want to add one , you can run the cable through a speedo grommet or similar instead of drilling another hole in the firewall .
 There are conversion kits for an electric choke on the carb you have then you can just tie in to 12v power source [blue wire] to the alt or voltage reg which would be more preferable in my mind as it is automatic .
