440 with Straight Pipes Cold Start

The engine sits in my -74 Monaco HT. The car had last been started sometime during the summer. Battery´s done and no choke.
And the gas they sell these days is worthless!

    ***** either he bought and installed a carb that doesn't have a choke, or removed the choke from the already installed carb (maybe because it stopped working correctly). For some dudes it doesn't bother them that they have to go through a bit of a routine to get their engine going ;-). Not to mention it doesn't look like this car is driven daily, so cold weather may not be a factor.

    Id love to find an old Plymouth Fury highway patrol car with the 440 Interceptor. Makes an awesome sleeper with 4 doors and the plain steel wheels with poverty caps. Even with the 3.23 highway gears those big Mopar's would get out of the hole surprisingly quick. My grandfather was a NY State trooper so I got to ride in a few of those full size Dodge's and Plymouth's with the 440 when I was a kid. He would take it out on the back roads and do some monster burnouts 😆. Thats what first made me a Mopar guy and I still am 50 years later

    Does it have an H pipe? Or is it just each engine side it's own exhaust straight out the side?

    That is an 2,5" X-pipe. I think ive had about 13 variations with the exhaust system on that car, changing diameters, curves, straight/H/X, and i must say with the X pipe i felt a noticable change in the low rpm torque.
