Choke Rod for #7164 Intake

The choke rod for #7164 intake is a precision carburetor linkage component engineered for Edelbrock Quadrajet and Performer RPM intake manifolds on big block Chevy engines. This divorced-style choke rod assembly manages the automatic choke operation, controlling fuel enrichment during cold starts and engine warm-up cycles. Built for serious enthusiasts and mechanics who demand reliable cold-start performance and proper carburetor calibration on high-performance big block applications.

Manufactured from steel with cadmium plating, this choke rod delivers corrosion resistance and durability under underhood conditions while maintaining precise dimensional tolerances. The divorced design separates the choke mechanism from the main carburetor body, allowing independent tuning and adjustment without compromising air-fuel mixture stability. The included retaining clip ensures secure installation and prevents unwanted movement during operation, maintaining consistent choke response across varying ambient temperatures and engine loads.

Mechanics rebuilding Edelbrock Quadrajet carburetors or swapping performer intake manifolds on big block Chevy platforms will find this choke rod essential for restoring proper cold-start behavior and drivability. The compact design (5.15 inches in length, 0.04 lbs) fits seamlessly within existing linkage geometry while the cadmium steel construction handles thermal cycling without degradation. Proper installation of this component ensures your carburetor delivers accurate fuel metering during the critical warm-up phase, preventing lean stumbles and hard starts on vintage or modified big block engines.
