What's the advantage of an electric choke over a manual? The car was set up with manual choke.
Sherman... I'm pretty sure it's a torque tube, but your question made me realize that I never actually looked! I ran the numbers and the motor is definitely a 58-60 235, but I'm not sure of the year of the trans. Why?
I posed the same question to Tom and he said "The dual Carter Webers are much more appropriate for the 235 because they have very small primaries designed for an engine have the size of a
235: -Therefore two are perfect for your engine. (There are progressive 2

Two one barrel carbs would sacrifice drivability if they were traditional size or sacrifice power if you could find some small ones."
C-Ws are sounding more and more like THE way to go for this car. I'll have to re-open this topic when I get around to building my hot 261. It will be built with 100% pre-1960 parts, so C-Ws are out.
