Edelbrock Air Gap

I run that AG up here North of the 49th, until mid October...... WithOUT a choke. I am back on the road as soon as the sweeper-trucks have made the rounds; April or May. I have started it on warm February days to go for a quick spin,brrrrrrrr. Buuuutt I have a DP carb, and 185psi cylinder pressure. Not bragging just saying.
