Default New Carb-Great

Just got the new carb installed. Went from having the old manual choke ( wired fully open) to an electric choke. HUGE difference. First of all, it no longer take 10 minutes to warm up. Also, it now starts up without a problem. Best part about the whole thing, needed virtually no tuning once it was bolted on.

Amazing how a well tuned carb can change how a car runs, huh?

Did you just connect the electric choke to the positive on the coil.

Its a 650 edelbrock

hooked the 12 V into an open port that originally went down to the transmission for the back up lights. didnt need it because of the new shifter that is in the car.
