1961 Galaxie 2-bbl Carb - Electric Choke Conversion

Simple question. Does anyone know specifically which electric choke conversion will work for the 2-bbl carb on my 1961 Galaxie? The carb number is C1AE AC. If anyone has any suggestions, I would appreciate them. Thanks, and Happy New Year.

You're saying "electric choke conversion". Does that mean that there is a manual choke on the carb now? If so, it doesn't get any better than a manual choke in my opinion. Simpler is better.

No, it has a climatic choke - runs off the manifold heated air. I want to put an electric choke. I agree with simple - but this is my daughter's car. Thanks.

Still looking for a suggestion for an electric choke kit

Hey guys and gals: Still looking for a recommendation for converting my climatic choke - actually uses a stove pipe from the exhaust to heat the choke) to using an electric one.
My car is a 1961 Galaxie with 352 and 2-bbl carb. C1AE AC is the carb number.

If I knew all the applications for a Ford 2-bbl up thru the years, I could order on for a later carb - such as one for a Mustang or similiar.

Any help?
