[wullie]

[polystyrene]

does that linkage give you full carb opening?

doesnt look like it will give much movement of the carb.

looks good though

Here is a pic that shows the carb open without the arm and then with the arm.

I wont post a pic of something if it hasn't been tested; and for what this part cost me it sure as :satan: better work.
These parts are not uncommon they are used typically in cars that had a rotary carb and then were switched to a slide carb. This also has 2 bearings on the arm for smooth operation.

Unfortuantely I can't take the credit for building or thinking of the concept, it was a part that I found looking at various sites. It is designed for use in cars that had a rotary carb and have been switched to a slide carb.

 

[k0m0d067]

be that as it may, that mill didn't come with a rotary carb...so who would have thought to use it?? too modest dude...it's sweet work, regardless...

 

[R6 DADDY]
