Redneck cruise control! Well my longhorn wasnt optioned that way, but the 383 doesnt need a choke to crank off. I took the flapper out of the 1407 edelbrock,& left all the linkage. No.....I dont use it for cruise control,but for warming the the eng up. It did come in handy when i broke a throttle cable though........altho a little different to drive with a "gas cable"! Crazy AL
