Bud-

I have a manual choke weber in my 77B.  I installed the handle in the
blanking plate on the left side of the dash.  Interestingly enough, I had
the opportunity to have John Twist do a check-out ride in my B last week.
One of the changes he recommended was to reposition the choke control to the
dimmer control location.  As this hole is steel backed, it is a more secure
placement.  I figure if it's good enough for John . . .

Regards,

Chris
