Choke thermostat help needed

So your "new" exhaust manifold doesn't have the heat well your old one has?

I'm just finishing up converting my '64 Slant from the stock 1920 Holley and exhaust to a BBD two barrel carb and Clifford shorty tube headers. Not having the factory heat well anymore, I cut up a piece of scrap 3/16" steel plate with a Harbor Freight grinder and made this mounting plate for the heat well electric choke conversion I was already using on the Holley 1920.

I've read that my 1920 electric choke spring rotates the wrong direction to work with my new BBD. Once I reconnect the battery power and I prove that this electric coil spring won't work with my BBD, I may have a deal to offer on this 1920 electric choke.
