While, cleaning my carb, i notice i had no choke, i.e took of the air cleaner and was shocked to see no choke plate nothing, no my question is while not a problem now i take winter starts will be a bitch, but can i get this choke parts, or is new carb the best option also what extra connection are needed as i want to know if everthing is in place for fitting a carb with choke.

Could be the previous owner had the choke cut off for better performance.
In that case a new carb will be the solution

what type of carb do you have + post some pics so we can find a solution.

with some (race) carbs, there is no choke tower. and they dont have any winter start troubles.

The carb looks like a 2100 to me but i might be wrong.

I had a holley 2300C (also 2v) on my mustang and never used my (hand)choke. I never had troubles starting in winter.
