Default Edelbrock 2101

Is the edelbrock 2101 Intake Manifold a direct cross for a 1978 L82 with the original carburetor? Does it have the choke openings on the side and everthing else from the original except the EGR?

Thanks

Just looking at a picture of the 2101 in there catalog it has the place to mount the
choke coil spring.

When I did my crate motor, I was going to use the 2101, but the guy at the parts house talked me into the 2701 for better performance and HP. I have an electric choke, the same as the stock Quadrajet on the Edelbrock 1406 Carb. In my opinion, go with the 2701. I have no regrets, except the additional power! It also all fit under the stock hood with the Edelbrock drop base air cleaner with just as much clearance as the stock air cleaner. Also, using the Edelbrock carb, no adapter plates between carb and manifold.

Everything matched up fine on mine, except there is no provision for the EGR valve.
