250 with Clifford intake and Weber 38/38

[walls]

Hoping someone may have a pic they could share.
I have a chev 250 6cyl and a Clifford intake with a Weber 38 carb.
Looking for ideas on linkage.
Was thinking of going with a lokar cable, but figured maybe someone has come up with a linkage setup that would work??
If you have any ideas, they'd be appreciated.

Not that particular setup, I have a 4bl Edelbrock on an Offy intake. Rather than mess with a cable, I used a generic bellcrank mounted on a carb base plate to use solid rod linkage making a 90 degree translation of the push/pull. can post a pic if you need to see.

Here ya go. Now your weber may mount "inline" and just need a cable, or other bellcrank, but with a typical 4bl, the carb sits 90 opposed to the stock throttle rods, so we have to make a 90 degree turn. Some use a cable, I used a bellcrank.

In the second picture I draped out everything but the linkage so it is easier to see.

I used a generic carb plate for throttle cable mounting, but had to cut, flip and weld the horn so it was the proper position. The bellcrank and rods ends came from Speedway parts. The bellcrank uses a spacer to get it up to the right height and for clearance. I think I threaded my own rods after cutting to length. Took some engineering, but works great as I retained the stock gas pedal and pivot mechanism.

Cool setup.
Thanks for taking the time to post pics.

Off topic of the original post, but all the old cars I've had to this point had road draft tubes.

Do you run your pcv to the manifold or to the air cleaner?
And is there a difference other than esthetics?
