I have seen threads where people have had trouble with stock linkage after installing fenton headers. It includes all brackets springs and connecting rod to pedal for 65.00 Good choice or any alternative ideas.

I don't think the springs and rod came up to 65.00 plus shipping. What they think you need and what you see you need might be 2 different things. | | | | Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 2,393 Shop Shark | Shop Shark Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 2,393 | Agree with Elmer. Make it your self. It's ez. For cotter pin insert if you use them, I flattened the rod slightly on one side to have a good surface to drill.

It works fine, No Fancy kit costing How Much? Jerry

The linkage for the dual carbs has a tab for the original throttle rod.
Just put it in the vice and made about 3 jogs to fit between the new manifolds. works fine.
