Anybody recognize this electrical junction and know what it is supposed to route to ? I was hoping to find the wires for the electric choke, but this doesn't look right (I think it should just be two positive wires)

Car is a US '74 CSA

Well, another photo disappeared. Sorry.

TIA

Yes, I believe you are correct. It has been a while since I pulled my carbs off. There were green wires connected there that ran to the various electrical connections on the carbs. The others may just be empty/spares. It should be 12V from the ignition.
 
Correct switched power (on when ignition is on) to the stock chokes. I just converted from carbs to L-jet so I know it well.

Thanks Guys. My wiring diagram also shows a relay being used for electric chokes but I cant seem to find that either. Spencer at Mesa Performance says that was only for E3s, but I see it on my E9 diagram.

Converted to electrics last night by running 18g wire straight off that connection in the photo. One less hose to burst on my way to the desert next weekend.
