Default Completed Weber pictures FE (est measurement)

Hello
Those of you that have a completed Weber setup with throttle linkage connecting back to how you have it connect to the gas pedal, can you post some pictures?

I’m looking to get ideas to change up my throttle linkage. I made some changes and wanted to the angle at which the gas pedal sits or those with the center bell crank if you know how long the shafts that connect to the carbs are.

When engaging my throttle all the way my butterflies are not fully engaging.

Thanks

Picture of my linkage. The bellcrank works thru the full range, having about 45 degrees on one side of center and the full open position about the same on the other side.

The rear link length will depend on where you place the crossshaft and really isn't critical.

The levers on the cross shaft are about 2-1/2" pivot to ball and again, they work equal amounts either side of 90degrees.

The lever on the foot pedal is about 3-1/8" from ball center to pivot shaft center. The footpedal is a replica of the originals

Hi Phil

I did go with the Weber Linkage provided by John Bessey.
It works perfect and is great to setup/adjust.

Can you please provide the link to John Bessey.

I’m curious to see what other products he has, I never heard of him.

Thanks
