    I've got a customer with the 50 Chevy with the 216 and a Fenton 2x1 setup on it. The problem is the linkage is all homemade and garbage. I see that you can buy the intake new with the linkage but I can't find the linkage separately anybody know where I can get this stuff? I can easily buy the linkage that goes from the Bell crank to the upper linkage on the carb no problem but the piece I'm really looking for is from carb to carb, thanks

    I have built many that never looked cobbled and operated by the bell crank mounted stock on the block that pushed up. If you could show up a photo it would help.

    I’m not familiar with a Fenton intake but some are very simple using a 1/4” round rod slid threw a boss cast in to the intake with nice looking clamps available now through Kinsler Fuel injection.

    Offenhauser linkage #1034 separately for 2 carb unit on the internet.

    I build linkage using 3/16" aluminum rod I thread the ends to 10-32, and using heim ends on the rod. Makes a really nice looking linkage that also operates extremely smooth.

    ^^^^^that’s great for the rod at the bell crank on the engine. I’m thinking the problem maybe the connection of the 2 carbs and then that connection to the rod your talking about. It’s simple if the Fenton has the bosses cast in for a tie rod to attach too. We really need a photo.

    On dual carbs I use generic bell cranks, or tie the two carbs together by stacking the heim ends on one carb to work the 2nd carb.
