Can you convert a manual choke Holley using only parts from an electric choke q-jet? No.

Can you use an electric choke thermostat from a q-jet to replace the thermostat on an electric choke Holley? Maybe, but I'd check the rotation direction first to be sure (not sure they're the same off the top of my head).

No, they don't fit the same way. Just get the right choke kit for your carb. IIRC it will have 2 terminals; hook one to ground, the other to your car's choke heater wire.
