I have had my '69 400 4-spd 'vert for about two months now and am trying to get a few of the bugs out. I have had some trouble with my Holly carb (H-1850, 600 CFM) with manual choke, mostly hard cold starting and heavy carbon deposit out of the exhaust once it does start. I spoke to the owner of a local garage and he recommends putting in the original Rochester carb with electric choke, he added that the Rochester will waste less gas as well. I am considering the change to the Rochester. Any thoughts either way?
