I'm working on a 1977 Ford F-150 motor it's a 351 modified it was pretty stock need to know if there is a part number still available for the choke heater the little coil with the two tubes for emissions that heats up the choke and bolt onto the intake manifold just underneath the carburetor also is there a block off plate available for this I know it can be made but gasket would be nice to actually get the size and have a drilled up properly Banks

 

WARNING THE FOLLOWING STATEMENT MAY CAUSE EYE ROLL AND HEAD SHAKING...

when I rebuilt my motor I faced the same dilemma as you...
I just fabbed a block off plate out of 3/8 scrap and used a heat resistant sealer
It has yet to give me any fits...
now you could purchase a sheet of gasket material and make your own..

 

X2 what he said......you can use sheet gasket material and a small ball peen hammer to make most any gasket

Thanks Gents, gonna go get the gasket at Autozone and I have some thin stainless that will get cut to make the block off plate. Once the kids starts spending some of his own $$ he can install the Cleveland heads and a nice aluminum intake that will cure things like these
