Good Morning:
I got some great info from you folks about he carburetor/ intake manifold for my 1966/ 289 stang. I am going to get a 570 Avenger Carburetor. However, how difficult is it to convert from manual to electric choke. I am good with the mechanicals, but not so great with electric modifications.
Thanks,
Frank

Easy. Just need a 12v power source that is controlled by the ignition. the negative is grounded to the body of the carb. Adjust the choke by turning the casing of the choke left or right until it barely closes (while cold).
All there is to it.
