Mlcdc1:
Side view

quadrajam:
WHOH, HOLD IT, STOP, Something is horribly wrong with this picture.
Choke is not even close. I dont like the sandblasted finish and the phillip
head bowl screws either. Open hole in top. No telling whats been done inside.
At this point I would reccomend finding a better carb.
 
Dont mean to sound discouraging but....

Kenth:
Typical "Frankencarb".

Mlcdc1:
Frankencarb for sure.  When i took it off after first buying the truck, I knew why the kid said it “didn’t run very well”. The question remains, is it worth a little money and time to rebuild it?  You all can let me know your thoughts.

Kenth:
You can find an unmolested original 1979-1984 Chevy Truck unit for peanuts that will be easier/cheaper to modify for your use.
And it will adopt an electric choke to make it independent of intake used.
