Robert, let the carburetors features be the guide to selecting it for the application. In other words look at the fuel inlet location, throttle linkage, type of choke, vacuum fittings, etc.
For example, the Camaro with the 700-R4 will require a hook up point for the TV cable. Most Chevy carburetors set up originally for the TH350 will have the correct hook up point, some of the later carburetor numbers on your list may already have a TV cable hook up point for the 700-R4?
Side fuel inlet carburetors are prefered in most applications since the fuel filter housing will not be too close to the thermostat housing on short intake manifolds.
If the carb has a choke on the carb, it is easily converted to electric.
Quite a few of the carburetor numbers that you listed are divorced choke models. These are difficult to convert to electric choke, and work best with the factory intake manifolds and factory choke coils/linkage. This assumes that you plan on using a choke in the first place, we do NOT consider on necessary for street/strip cars or cars that are only operated in warmer weather.
My first choice is ALWAYS a later carburetor with the latest APT system and hot air choke. This way we get the best features of the q-jet, and we can add an electric choke if a choke is required for the application. Hope this helps some?......Cliff
