If you have an electric choke it is a non issue (I would still recommend that you draw hot air off the headers/exhaust manifold to keep the carb from icing ) If you have an airgap mainifold then you may experience the engine running poorly til you get some heat in the manifold .. Air gaps are more for making power ,cold air in equals more power out .. if you drive it in all kinds of weather then you should have a manifold with an exhaust crossover ... Electric chokes will not kick down automatic , you much kick the accelerator to bring the idle down ... But properly adjusted you should be able to hit the accelerator once , turnm the key and have it start and stay running at a high idle ... if it fails to do this it is not adjusted properly...
