1971 Challenger R/T 383 Holley Choke ?? - 04/22/19 01:46 AM

Hello All ,

I have a 1971 Challenger R/T 383 / Automatic that was originally sold in California.

The car originally had a HOLLEY 4668 4bbl Carburetor and owner swapped to a Carter

AVS 4bbl. I want to go back to the original HOLLEY ( I'm having Scott Smith @ Harm's Auto

restore original HOLLEY ) What I NEED is the correct CHOKE & appropriate ROD to the Carb.

I have looked on "Feebay" and am more confused than ever ..... whiney Can anyone of our

great forum members advise me on part number ? or Correct CHOKE Assembly ? confused

FYI .... I'm still using original cast-iron intake manifold .....

Thank you all for any replies when time permits ! wave Kevin Maloy

FYI, Kevin, I put the word out to a few sources for an NOS example or original I can restore, no replies yet.

Thank you for your business! beer

I am running the choke on two cars with the 383 and original intake with original 4160 series carburetors without any clearance problems. I also use the original type Holley thicker base gasket.
