TQ home-brewed choke setups

Why not just find a TQ electric choke setup?
I don't know how THIS reincarnation of my 340 will run, but last time around with the Holley on the Torker, I needed choke to START the motor....then once running, it ran like **** (read; ultra-rich) until I opened it full. Even when cold.
If it does the same this time around, I don't wanna wait for a coil to open up.
Of course, it might not, as this is a completely different build. But I would like to have that info available if I need it.
Besides...I haven't seen any TQ choke coils around for some time, even on ebay.
