There is no electronic choke, so would have to transfer the current one.

I recall some discussion on this forum some time ago about switching to Holley or Edelbrock units, but feel concerned about the linkages and height of these compared to the TQ. Thoughts anyone? |
My service guy is a RR/Bentley specialist and also is familiar with Bristols. He recently installed a Fitech single-point fuel injection system - mounts as per the carb. I looked at a circa 80s Rolls that had it installed and owner assures me that it works extremely well. If my Carter AFB packs it in I will give this some serious consideration.
