I have a 250 with twin Carter Webers on my 250 in a '66 Chevy. I got the whole setup from Langdons Stovebolt, including his linkage kit for the carbs, now I just have to figure out how to get the pedal connected to the linkage kit...Anybody got any pictures of how they did it with a similar setup? I can probably figure it out, but I don't want to re-invent the wheel if I don't have to.

Thanks!

I have a 350 holley on mine and used a rod from the bracket on the firewall to a bellcrank behind the carb.
Nice to see you using the Langdon's headers.
Some pics of mine. I'm geezer over there.

Thanks, thats exactly the kind of thing I'm talking about. I was thinking either something like you have there or rigging a throttle cable from the firewall bell crank.

Shouldn't be too hard to rig up a flexible cable with brackets from the firewall arm. Look around a bike shop or a boat supply store for a short cable. I thought about going that way before I found the bellcrank. I found some nice short cables at the local boat supply place.

Theres a "Bent Bike" here that sells generic throttle cables in a bunch of lengths, I am really thinking about going that rouute, I like that its a little unique.
