Carb Help!

Hello,
I am very new to this carburetor thing and have been trying to do a lot of research by myself, but I am just about stumped. I have a couple of questions if someone can help me out! I would greatly appreciate it!

1. My first question is are both of these carbs feedback? I definitely tell that the 7655 model is because I see the solenoid, but I can't tell on the 7285 model. It seems that there is a bunch of stuff missing from this carb.

2. What is missing from the 7285 S carb? Is it missing the choke housing?

3.I am wanting to run a Duraspark Ignition system in my 1984 Ford F150 and I need a non-feedback carb, I know you can run it with a feedback carb, but if I am going to rebuild one of these might as well get a new carb. What is a non-feedback carb I can get for this?

4. I might have more questions after I understand the answers to the questions.

Thanks for any help you can provide!

The carb with all the wires I believe is a feed back carb as it looks like it had a TPS. I don't know what the thing is under the choke housing?
I also don't know how it will run if you were to remove the feed back parts but the carb does look to be all there.

The other carb how does the choke work? I don't see where a choke housing would bolt to to make it close & open?

If I did not go for a rebuilt 80-82 non-feed back carb I think I would try the feed back carb with the junk removed.

I thought that maybe the thing under the housing was the solenoid for the carb. Is that correct of does it look different from that.

I couldn't really wrap my head around this either. i am not sure if the housing was removed or what, but I don't see how it could be functional at all without the housing. There really isn't indication that a housing bolts to it.
