HSs had an unusual 'bottom up' arrangement where the outer bore on the 
lever on the choke spindle and pushed up as the dash control was pulled, 
the inner was tethered to an arm on the front air-cleaner mounting 
bracket.  Early HIFs were the same except the inner was tethered to the 
same bracket which had the socket for the throttle cable outer.  Later 
HIFs had the more usual arrangement of the outer sitting in the same 
bracket as the throttle cable outer and the inner pulled the choke lever 
up. Pictures of all three types at http://www.mgb-stuff.org.uk/linkage.htm
