Product Details

Edelbrock is well-known for performance parts, especially their intake manifolds. This choke block-off kit is designed specifically for their Performer Series intake manifold, part number 2161, on Big Block Chevrolet engines. If you're removing the automatic choke system from your Big Block Chevy, this adapter plate is what you'll need to cleanly block off the choke housing on that specific manifold.

This kit includes the adapter plate itself, allowing you to properly seal the area where the choke mechanism would normally attach. It's a straightforward component intended to work with the #2161 manifold, ensuring a clean installation when you're going for a manual choke setup or eliminating the choke entirely.
