Carburetor Question

I have a 1978 f-150 with a 300 and the 1-barrel carb. I'm looking at buying a brand new carb for a 81-83 F-150, it a 1-barrel too. I just want to know if it is a direct bolt-on to my manifold. I noticed that the new carb has an electric choke, what would I have to do to make this electric choke work?

Thanks,
Jake

This thread will be moved to the fuel delivery forum as it is not a 73-79 specific.

Just tap into the Stator wire from the back of the alternator. That is where the factory gets voltage to the choke.
