Choke question(not stock)

Hey guys I've got a question. I am running a Q-Jet on my truck, and it is an older style that was made with an choke in the intake, and there is no way to get that to work on a Offy DP. So I have no choke(not fun at all), but there are a couple of guys that seem to think that a manual choke could be rigged up for it.

Do you guys know of any way this can be done when there are no provisions for a choke to begin with? I am asking because this carb is in awesome shape practically brand new, and I've already been playing musical carbs anyway so I really hate to find another carb.

They do make a manual choke conversion kit. You would have to do a little searching on the web but I'm sure they still make them.
