Auto to manual choke conversion

I have a bc carb on my truck that start good when cold but once the motor starts to cool the choke closes and the only way to get it started is to pop the hood and hold the choke open. I live in florida and its not often I need full choke. Yesterday after sitting 2 hours in the 90 degree heat it wouldn't start. Another time I just drove to the gas station and had to do the same thing. I'd like ore control over this. I was thinking about changing it to a manual choke and saw this kit. Any ideas if this will work? Dorman 55104 Choke Conversion Kit Universal Fit. Heres a video of some doing a electric to manual on a newer ford https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vsej...etMotorRevival I think the same kit would work
