We live in a fairly warm area, so I'm leaning towards no choke.

DC,

I have a similar engine and I a Holley 750 double pumper (rebuilt (late 90's)) with an electronic choke. The 750 made a huge difference at lower RPMS and a noticeable as you stand on it. The electric choke is sometimes a PIMA. I am contemplating installing manual choke and mounting it under the dash (near the 12 volt outlet).

Enjoy your new car.
