    Hello,

    Going to start setting up the linkage on my4100 Autolite. Here are my questions.

    1) The foot throttle comes through the firewall and does it hook up to the bell crank like the left circle? I have a double adjustable rod that is about 18" or so and not sure where it goes. I don't have any pics of how it hooks up on a car.

    2) Dealing with the PCV valve and vacuum. I have a vacuum port on the carb for the dist. can I port the PCV valve into the manifold at the back or should I use my spacer that has a port built into it? When I got the engine the crankcase fumes were vented to the oil filler cap and the spacer under the carb[​IMG].

    3) I am not using the vacuum portion of the fuel pump so are they good to block off?

    4) Does all of the linkage look correct you? Am I missing anything or does something need to be moved around?

    Thank you,


    Mike

    We will wait for the pictures.
    PCV going into the back of the intake should be fine if it is manifold vacuum.

    I will have to load the pic when I get home as I thought it was on my phone. Apparently not.

    Here is the Y block as I bought it-before the rebuild obviously.
