| | | | Joined: Mar 2008 Posts: 32 Apprentice | | Apprentice Joined: Mar 2008 Posts: 32 | I'm placing in a fenton dual intake as well as a fenton dual exhust on a 235 My first question is this: 1. How does the linkage hook up for both carbs. 2. How do you attach the dash throtal control as well as the dash coke cable to the set up 3. How does the gas pedal hook to the dual carb linkage and operate properly. I know its a lot question but if your going to do it you might as well do it right!

I'm curious if the offy one comes with instructions as well. I don't hear anyone with a floating linkage complaining but I had the same setup and could never get the linkage to push the carbs equally enough to satisfy me. Good luck.

The center arm on the linkage connects to the original upright rod from the stock linkage. you will want to use locking nuts on the bolts attaching it to the carbs. It will also take some tweeking to get the whole thing to open equally, but it can be done. i can take some pix of my Offy setup if you need to see what I'm talking about. I will warn you, mine is custom made as I am using non-GM carbs (they're off an IH), and use different arms than a Rochester/Carter. But the overall operation is the same.
