    My engine has blocked the heat passages in the intake. So I must install a electric choke instead of the divorced choke. But what kit can i buy? I have seen kits to the later 455 71-73, and to some Chevrolets, but would it fit?

    My engine is a stock 67 430 with the Rochester Quadrajet (rebuilt, but stock). Nearly 180.000 miles on the original engine, but runs fine.

    My carb mounted electric choke kit does fit on a 67 choke bracket, BUT you need to grind or file the "sawteeth" off the back of the bracket. Or swap to a 68-69 bracket. otherwise it fits and functions fine on a 67.

    I recently installed Ken's conversion kit on a customers 67 Buick Quadrajet.
