Re: MOTORHEADS--69' 307ci tell me about it...

Lots of good info... you guys that got new carbs and intakes... How hard was it to do away with the auto choke? How does it work? This is what is left after the origional plastic one came apart. Thanks!

Not bad at all. I went with an Edelbrock 1406 electric choke carb. I believe it was two wires. Getting the carb on and running right was nothing. Getting the Dizzy back in after I screwed up the re-install was what I had trouble with in the whole process. That could be because I was learning as I went, though. Didn't think very far ahead when I started pulling old parts out.

I've seen a heap load of Chevy engines and never seen a single carb intake that interfered with an HEI. Usually, it's tunnel rams and the like which have multiple carbs/and or extreme high rise that cause interference with large body HEI distributors.
