...and no choke is necessary.  
I have Larry's Quick Fuel Holley with the choke completely removed and
it always starts up just fine, even in winter.  
(Air temp was upper 30's last month when I last drove it)

on a mild engine build, an off-the-shelf carb will work
just fine and you won't see much improvement, if any, from a custom
job. If
you did have a non-standard engine, then I'd suggest going to one of
the
shops that custom builds carbs for your specific engine configuration,
like
Chuck Nuytten. But for a standard configuration you should be happy
with
Mike's suggestion

   it always starts up just fine, even in winter.
