australian factory manual choke

<< < (2/2)

Ethan1:
 I have read some on the Aussie Quadrajets and am intrigued. There were several with the manual chokes. Not just the 7045281. Also, I also read that the "8" in the carburetor number means "Holden". Whether that is true or not, I do not know. It would make sense though. 8)

Cliff Ruggles:
That part doesn't look factory, I would have thought the factory would have incorporated the attachment point into the lever so it wasn't just held in with a screw.....Cliff

daveqjet:
from what I can find on the net it was used on the L34 toranas only,the L34 was a rare beast new and even rarer now.

daveqjet:
there doesent appear to be several if any but the L34 manual choke qjets ethan as far as I can find online?263 L34s were built and about 120 are estimated to be still around,the holley was the next dealer option up for racers with a couple other handling mods,at about an extra 1600 you beaut aussie dollars,the L34 was already over 6000,bout 2 grand more than a full house 350 chev powered luxury long wheel base statesman.
