Do I need a choke?

choke or no choke 30 seconds is crazy
2 or 3 pumps of the primary squirter it should start in 2 seconds no choke even@45 degrees out dead cold
hold it at 2k for 3 min maybe a little longer with the air gap it should idle
10 inches of vacuum is pretty big cam in a stocker if installed right
might want more initial timming
whats your cranking compression ?
