So it seems that the carter w-1 carb used a different throttle linkage than my 1953 truck.
So it probably is that carter w-1 was used in 1948 (my engine) and then switched to Rochester for my truck(1953).
The linkage does not match up as it looks like the PO just bent the throttle linkage on the carb to make it fit. Otherwise the connection is too high and the engine would race.
Does anyone know if the throttle rod that connects to a carter carb is pretty much the same just shorter?
