Default Weber center linkage

When I went to Carlisle this past May, the blue FIA had a new motor with Webers and acenter linkage set up. Does ERA sell the linkage as a kit or can you tell me what is needed as far as parts and where I can purchase them? Also, do you have any pictures of the linkage set up? Thanks, ERA2100

When you say "Center Linkage" can you clarify it a little further? Did it have a bellcrank in the center of the manifold or a rod mounted in Rod Ends running through the center of the manifold?

A rod going down the center just like your are looking for. It was on a set up with opposed carbs. I wish I had taken a picture. I plotted the Kirkum set up of the old style linkage. Using 3" connecting rods center on center, the drivers side lever was set at 23 degrees pointing up to thr right, and the passanger side was set at 70 degrees pointing down to the lower right.

Are you looking for something like this? We make a bracket that bolts to the back of the head for the big bellcrank.

I am looking for the center linkage that mounts to each individual carb. The dark blue FIA taht you bring to carlile every year had a new 302 with Webers and the center bar in the middle with levers connecting the carbs. Thanks.
