The longer one gets in the way of the water heater valve on intake manifold which I have relocated elsewhere for now. I'd like to keep the stock location which is why I was wondering it's possible to convert the carb.
...hmmph...

The 57 4100 was a one year design (HOLLEY) (elongated accelerator pump and divorced choke housing).

I wonder if the 4100 292/312 had a remote mounted heater control valve?

Can you show a photo of your air cleaner asm? I would think it would be the same for the 4100-4150-AFB equipped engines.
