Default Carb choke

Back when I was swaping my 383 into my k5 blazer I bought a holley 670 cfm street avenger carb from my buddy for $50 the problem is that he removed the choke plate for some strange reason. Id like to hook up the electric choke on it but I need the plate. Anyone know where I can get one?

I actually made a choke cover in metal shop a while back.

Manual choke kits come with a plastic cover which may fit.

Are you talking about the choke plate down in the venturi?

Well I'm soon going to be starting on a 454 project so when thats done the 383 will be gone. Its gonna be a while though.

As for which choke plate I'm talking about its the red arrow in the pic:


But as it turns out everything for the choke is gone (red circle). The whole choke assembly is gone, the plate is gone, the plate shaft is gone. Luckly I found everything on holleys website. Its about 80 bucks for a automatic choke conversion kit, the choke plate, and the choke plate shaft, not too bad. It'll pay for it self when I don't have to sit in the truck and keep the throttle open to 2000 rpm untill it gets warm just to get it to idle.
