Re: [Chrysler300] C carbs with big ex manifolds

["Keith Boonstra kboonstra@xxxxxxxxxxxx [Chrysler300]" <Chrysler300-noreply@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have no idea what was on the trucks, etc. when they had the four-bolt manifold, John, but I have the four-bolts units on my C, and it cost me something like $8.99 to solve the problem at NAPA. They sell an aftermarket kit of a piece of aluminum tubing and a heat stove that clamps on to your exhaust pipe below the manifold. Other than using a little longer piece of copper tubing than they provided in aluminum, the thing clamped on easily, feeds right into the rear carb choke regulator, and does the job exactly as it's supposed to. No complaints.

Hi all,

J-Y and I recently finished up a 57 C , now with 58 D engine. (lucky to get that!). we put on the Hi performance 4 bolt 392 ex manifolds , also used on dodge truck we understand. 2.25 all the way back. Why this email, they have no provision for carb choke air heater setup. 300D WCFB’s on car .

 

We were thinking about electric choke heater, later Carter might fit.  I know 426 carter black heat cover parts from 426 AFB fit WCFB, probably Edelbrock would too.  . At least functionally..the originals often break off or crack at the heat tube nut .

 

Does anyone know what was on the cars stock for choke with these manifolds? Has anyone put an electric choke on the WCFB’s ?

 

Thanks,

 

John
