That's not quite a stock setup (carb is a Holley 2280; stock was Carter BBD) and that throttle/KD linkage is definitely not stock :shock: . It's going to be difficult to add a satisfactory manual choke conversion to that carburetor, but probably not impossible, and looks like you've had some experience fabricating linkage setups already on this car. How are your welding skills? You could weld a simple platform onto the applicable header runner to mount a #1232 Electric choke kit...

On an unrelated note, wouldn't the missing EGR valve result in a massive vacumn leak?
