I can start my 63 with the 850 DP and no choke even when its in the 30's. And thats no choke blade as I take the choke blade out of my double pump carbs. I found out over the years how much easier it is to start my hotrod in colder weather with a DP carb then a carb with just one acell pump like a vac secondary carb. I pump it to the floor about 4 times and keep puming while I crank it over and it will fire up and then I have to feather it to keep it running a few minutes until it warms up some. But I rarely drive it in weather colder then 50 degrees. But I do start and run it some every few weeks through the winter when its colder then 40 degrees. Ron
