Holley floods engine

yeah I'm not dicking with anything that doesn't have a choke. This is a street car in western PA. Spring and fall we have 40 degree mornings and 80 degree afternoons. A choke is a necessity. I gave up on the no choke silliness when I was a kid.
I just need to get this thing running a driving to assess if any of the drivetrain is worth the powder to blow it to hell. Like I said it came in a bunch of boxes. Once it is a functioning vehicle I'll start improving it.

I live where sub freezing temps are the norm. I never use a choke.

I’ll never understand why everyone think a choke is a good thing. Do what you want. I’ve given you enough you can fix it if you want.
