Which is a divorced choke set up right? The choke is supposed to be on the manifold. Of course there is no choke on a 305e manifold.
Ha!
This thing did actually run ok, rather rich tho. I guess I'm shopping for a new carb now lol.

Thanks

All GMC V6 engines came with a manual cable operated choke but you do come across some that have had other carbs installed by previous owners that have an automatic choke that is useless on these engines. In 1967 there was a shortage:ahhhh: of Bendix-Stromberg ww carbs because Chrysler used a lot of them on their 318 engines so GMC did install Rochester 2G carbs on some 305 V6 engines but those had the manual choke.:teehee:

I can't see the picture but does it fit without modification?

Re: Very interesting V6 Carburetor

The Motorcraft 2100 uses the same base pattern as the Holley 2300 series, so it will require the same adapters as well. For the smaller base you will need the Mr. Gasket 1937, the larger Magnum base of course will require a custom adapter.
