(1) putting an electric choke on wife's car which was equipped with an automatic transmission
(2) thinking I was good enough to make a Pontiac 301 with factory turbo run with a basically stock 1970 4 cylinder Toyota

What was the result? Cold start problems?
I've always heard, and believed, that Pontiac had a superior design with the valley pan. It keeps the hot oil off of the intake manifold. Is there another reason for it? Seems to contradict the hot manifold theory. Would the hot oil make it past the target intake temp?
