I rebuilt the carbs on my HP500's. They are stock 800 CFM Holley 4150's. One sounds great, the other isn't sounding right so for the $ I'm just going to replace it. Here's my question. Everywhere I look online I"m seeing 800 CFM Marine Holley's with manual chokes. Hp500's have electric chokes. Does someone sell them set up that way already or do I have to buy the electric choke conversion kit? I notice the 850 CFMs all come with electric choke? What gives?

I don't think you need a choke.
Nickerson's took the elec choke off my 850, and the engine started much easier and the idle smoothed out allot quicker.
Guess if I had a choke though, I'd prefer manual type, then I wouldn't have to worry about it kicking in unless I wanted it to

Im going to take the chokes off my 850s this year to maney problems I tryrd like hell to get them to work but could not. Just warm the engines up a bit. Oh ya I could not live with out the electric choke on my 79 Trans am and can make that sucker work perfect. But for some reason the boat whole diffrent story.

A holley choke can be put on the carb. They're available for about $50.
But I would eave the chokes off. Just be sure to plug the air vent hole. It's got a little cork gasket that goes between the carb and the choke.
