VP 4.3 GL conversion to Holley Sniper 2 efi

One of the best sources of Quadrajet information and parts is
Cliff's High Performance Quadrajets
they have a forum where you can ask questions and also sell parts.
I hope that carb is not a "frankencarb"! that's what Cliff calls some of them that were pieced together from several different carbs but they don't work well like ones that have all the originally spec'd parts. The one on my boat was an original un-molested marine carb, so it was easy to put it back in good shape. Good cleaning, better quality parts

About the choke adjustment, forget the hash marks. What you want is to adjust it so it just barely closes with a cold engine and also so it opens fully vertical when the engine warms up. If you're not going to install it you can just set it like that, so the choke flap just closes lightly.

Guess I'll find out.

When I get it in my hands I'll head over to Cliff's and see if I can get the parts identified.

I still have the Holley worst case.

So 5 marks in from the left side or 5 marks in from the right?

You adjust it so the flap just barely closes at ~40F and fully opens about 140
