Having a hard time getting mine to start at even 10 degrees. Its a 355 with a 600 eddy with electric choke, but I have it leaned right out to get best milege as my dd....gonna have a lot of fun next couple days with morning temps hovering around 0, better richen it up tomorrow maybe.
My old '79 in college also had a 355 and 600 eddy with electric choke and it was an awesome cold starter. One weekend I was up in northern ME sledding with a bunch of buddy's and trucks sat for a couple days in severe cold. The night we left it was somewhere around -35 (fahrenheit!!!) and my old '79 fired right up after 2 kicks of the go pedal. Matter of fact I had to jump a buddy's '95 Bronco then the two of us had to jump each battery in my other buddy's old 6.9 Ford diesel.
