A quick search on this site will yield lots of conversations about this very thing. A decent Holley 1920 is hard to find these days, but it will bolt on if you use the correct choke pieces. A Holley 1945 IIRC is a direct replacement. When I did the Lean Burn to HEI swap I tossed on the latter and had no problems. |

I have a very good 1974 Dodge truck/van Carter BBS carb, in-box, on my shelf. It is drop-on compatible and will work well on your '85—except it would want a Carter-type choke thermostat, which is just as well because whether you stay with a 1945 or go to a BBS you would be much(!) happier replacing the not-very-good factory choke thermostat and controller with one of the Electric choke kits. № 1231 if you get the BBS carb, or № 1234 if you use a Holley 1945. These electric chokes, unlike the factory items, are adjustable which allows enormous improvements in cold-start/cold-drive behaviour. Send me a PM if you wish to buy the BBS. |
