Dave,

I found your webshots of the C-W dual carbs to be quite helpful with my 261 installation (Greg Hill, I hope you are reading this and look at Dave's photos at the links below).

I could not get the throttle to linkage rod thought the intake manifold (Fenton) until I installed the linkage carb-to-linkage standoffs at an angle from the carbs, rather than perpendicular to the valve cover.

I get no back-off popping but I do not seem to get any more acceleration oomph than I got with matched dual Rochester (stock 261 engine Rochesters).

The 216 and early 235 engines are not "splash oilers" -- this is a splash oiler.
