I have and it's ugly and finiky to deal with. I even did a set up with an electric choke useing the stuff off of an AFB mounted to a pair of "L" brackets on a plate under the carb.
For a manual choke, it is easier to go to the other side (Drivers) and use a "L" bracket and the big hole to mount it. Now use a screw down holder, like a manual choke cable holder for /from a Holley or Carter and drill a mounting point down low on the bracket angled upwards to the top of the carb.
Disconnect the linkage and use the existing hole to operate. I think I may have a picture around. If not, Later after a vote, I'll go back into the garage and recreate it. It was easy enuff.
