I did confirm they are the same other than the linkage rod.
Thanks again

I have time off over the holidays, gonna do an engine bay detail and add the 2101... just weighing out all my carb options right now, prefer not run the crossover so just researching all my options to be prepared when I do the project.
thanks again and if I do stick with divorced choke coil the 1935 will be an option with some rod modification

I've spent hours reading 100s of threads on many forums, watching tons of carb test results and reviews, lots of time this week on the phone with Holley, Edelbrock and Summit just gaining info, frankly when I travel I have lots of hotel and windshield time.
I realize carbs are like anything else... people will stand by their perferred manufacturer and are quite biased so like to get some neutral info where I can.
one more week of travel before starting the tear down and will move forward with a decision by this Monday
If you are not going to run the EFE flapper valve on the passenger side exhaust manifold exit, then you can add a stainless steel shim stock block off plate between the intake and intake gasket at the drivers side cylinder head exhaust outlet port. Only block the drivers side so you stop the major heat flow but keep the minimum heat that will operate the choke coil. Leave the passenger side exhaust port open. It will work well.
My Camaro is set up that way. I just fabbed up a strip and slid it in after loosting the intake bolts. Tightened them back up and drive on.
Add a bent over tab so you can tap it down into the engine.

I was originally wanting to do away with the crossover in the intake which would send me to an electric choke set up... if I stay with the open crossover in the new intake (2101 edelbrock) I will just likely stay with my current carb as it runs great and been on the car since the 70s
in no big rush, still drive the car every weekend but have time off over the holidays and will at least do the intake install and engine bay detail
thanks again.
