Re: [Chevelle-list] manual choke (Edelbrock carb)

[Tom Tomlinson]

Unfortunately the car is 30 miles away right now, so I don't know. I may go up to it tonight and if so, I'll let you know, and maybe take a picture.   I'm also in the process of upgrading my distributor with an electronic module, and repositioning it. The previous owner had installed the distributor wrong, and the vacuum advance can is actually over a runner in the manifold (but just clears). A stock installation would have the can between the manifold and the valve cover on the passenger side. As long as the relative position of the rotor and cap don't change, I think you can put the vacuum advance can any where you want, limited by the teeth in the gear. There are 12 teeth in the distrubutor gear, so you could move your distributor in increments of 30 degrees to give you more clearance and adjustment for timing.   Tom ----- Original Message ----- From: John Nasta To: The Chevelle Mailing List Sent: Sunday, May 01, 2005 11:24 PM Subject: RE: [Chevelle-list] manual choke (Edelbrock carb) Thanks Tom. Is the hole at the bottom front corner? That's where it seems like it should be. I guess I'm going to have to drill my own. Seems odd that a manual choke carb did not come with a hole to hook a choke cable to.   John Nasta       -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Tom Tomlinson Sent: Sunday, May 01, 2005 10:34 PM To: The Chevelle Mailing List Subject: Re: [Chevelle-list] manual choke (Edelbrock carb)   My Edelbrock performer carb with manual choke came with a hole in the choke cam. All I did was hook up the existing manual cable to it and adjust the throw.   Tom Tomlinson
