How to swap choke-a-matic over to manual choke

Im sorry if this has been covered, I couldnt find any information on my particualr sitaution.

I have a Briggs & Stratton 20hp Vtwin Intek engine, model 406777 Type 0442. I recently replaced the carburetor with part#791230, manual choke.

Unbeknownst to me, the old carburetor was a choke-a-matic and should have been replaced with part#796258.

The new carb works and the engine runs great except.....it wont start cold without me manipulating the throttle linkage. I spent half an hour talking to B&S and that is how I found out I ordered the wrong carb. The old carb part# wasnt even in their system.

Anyways, does anyone know of a way I can rig this manual choke so that I do not have to buy another non returnable carb. (Wife is gonna lose it) I was thinking I could replace the bracket control, or just run some type of universal choke cable.

Any ideas?
