i just installed a dual single barrel carb intake with headers and bolted on the two carbs. linkage came with the intake but i dont know how to link up the two carbs so my throttle linkage will be able to connect. ive tried looking at peoples pictures but i do not find any straight on shots of the linkage, its always pics from the drivers side and it just show the carbs and fuel lines but no shots of the linkage set up. does anyone have any pics of this set up or now how to run the throttle linkage from the pedal to the carbs? when i got the truck there was no linkage and the trucks iv found at a junk yard, the motors are picked at so much i have little to no reference.
Here are some photos of the linkage setup (not my engine). Basically, you will have the long rod going from the pedal to the 2 arm lever on the side of the block. From there a linkage will extend to the center arm of the long throttle shaft. the 2 remaining arms on the shaft are for the carbs. May need some tweaking and in photo 2, the rusty rod is the original and the new longer one is from Patrick's.
patricks antique car and truck were very helpful. nice family owned business. fixed me up with custom throttle linkage for my chevy 235. they even offered to send a product magazine my way for future purchases. i would recommend these guys for anyone who has chevys 216, 235 or 261.
