Default Dual Quad Linkage

What would the Day 2 linkage look like for this setup, and where can I get one? This car has the steel throttle arm coming off the gas pedal, no cable

For mine on my wagon, I just made one from round stock, and then joined the 2 carbs together. I think it looks good and it works great (about 5 years now) plus it was cheap to build. Here is what it looks like.

Aftermarket 409 linkage would work fine.Tom

I'm not sure the '09 linkage would work that well. It's designed to have a lag before opening the front carb. I'd think with a tunnel ram you'd want both carbs to work at the same time.

Hmmm... I guess I need to take a few pictures and then start looking for examples on line - I assumed that Offenhauser had an old school version that went with their intake.

Search the HAMB. I would run them sideways. This is kinda cool if you are comitted to inline.

Actually hadn't thought about running them sideways, just thought inline was the typical Day 2 style! Is one method easier than the other, or more true to Day 2?

Marlin,
Every set up I saw back in the day was always in line. Race cars started putting them sideways. I had 2 660s in line and the linkage was super simple. I forget the brand and I don't have photos of the left side of the engine.

I spoke to Bill Jenkins about carbs and tunnel ram. He was the innovator, so even though he started doing that - late 1969, is it day 2 enough since he was in the minority?

Bill claimed the sideways fixed a lot of problems he had.
