I'm putting a 292 in my '70 Blazer. I've added an Edelbrock 4bbl manifold and headers. I have a Holley 390CFM to run on it. The problem is I added a vacuum booster to the manual brakes to run the newer disk brake front end. The Holley will fit if the shafts are at right angles to the engine and the carb's levers are by the vacuum booster. The carb's linkage now have to be pulled toward the rear of the truck to open, the same direction as the throttle pedal arm.
I need suggestions. Snake a LONG cable under the manifold and headers and back up to the carb linkage? Fabricate a shaft mounted above the manifold and use short linkage? Where can I get parts to make this?
Should have just put the 250 back in it.
