For helping keep this great
old truck web site
on the Internet for over 30 years! and not clogged down with Ads! Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Sep 2010 Posts: 122 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Sep 2010 Posts: 122 | I have a 2 piece bell crank. One portion of the bell crank has a screw stop adjustment that bumps up to a lip attached to the other portion of the bell crank. Will this bell crank work with a '61-261 w/ a Rochester 1 bbl carb? Or should I be using the "simple" one piece bell crank and use the dash mounted choke and throttle control.

If you modify the block as I do (blog post about it) you will be able to use that earlier style.
