Well, it happened, I took off the carb 10 years ago and put the linkage where I would not forget... but somehow I did. Anyone fab up their own? Tom's has one but it is a bit pricey.

Thanks

With so many people switching to EFI I bet you can pick up a used linkage set up from a member pretty cheap. I'd post in the Parts Wanted section. I'd offer mine but I pulled it off 20 years and 2 moved ago. Who know where it is.

I might have a full bell crank laying around I will look today when in shop. If I do $15 shipped sound good.

I've got a spare bell crank I'll give you for shipping costs. The throttle rod needs to be 7 1/2" to 8" long so that's what to look for.

I will look for extra parts..

Does anyone have any issues with the accelerator rod clip coming off when I hit the gas? Carb is Autolite 2100, stock manifold and throttle link.. Mine kept popping off so I added some ghetto elec. tape and all is well so far.. Maybe it is misaligned??

When I had the same issue thought it was due to the Windsor, I took and drilled a hole in the end of mine and stuck a cotter pin in mine never came off again

It is for the stock 2BBL. I am going to try and do what you showed with some rod ends.
