I just bought the Empi 40 HPMX dual carb kit and had a question about them. The single carb has an electric choke and the dual carbs do not have an electric choke like the single carb. Am i missing something or is this how dual carbs are set up?

the fuel enrichment/high startup idle device is to the right of the brake pedal.

No choke, and you won't need it. Use your foot as fast idle until your engine warms up.
