TRIPLE STOMBERG LINKAGES

[Blown_FC]

This may or may not interest a few of you, but I was in search for a set of new linkages for my triple stromberg CD150's.

I went to Holdens, Repco, Coventry's, Marlows, Supercheap Autos, the local car shop, Rare Spares and even the Redline Website....no one had ever seen them before. ( I should explain ), my old linkages are the type that joins between the butterfly (throttle) spindles of each carb, simply just a rod about 12cm long, with an 'S' shaped bracket on each end with a round hole on one side of the bracket for the rod to go in, and an oval type shape of the spindle on the other side.
They are a very simple and effective setup, but no-one had ever seen them before.....until I rang a carby service shop in my old home town ( Mandurah WA ), and the guy said...yep, no worries, I know exactly what you are looking for, $30, Done !

So if anyone else out there is looking for NEW linkages and are having the problems I had, let me know and I'll fix you up !

Cheers

P.S.    And Yes, they came in a REDLINE package....

Any chance of posting a photo of the set up?

I have a dual set up with no linkages, and I always considered the link between the butterfly pivots to be the neatest solution.

Ed.....The photos are too big to post on forum....email me and I'll reply with attachments for you to open.

The photos are of the complete triple carb set up when I bought them, so they are a bit grubby and a bit hard to see, but I can email you a diagram that I drew up on my computer. showing what they look like.

The carb linkage kit that I talked about in this message thread, does in fact suit the TWIN downdraft strombergs.  The triples have a slightly larger spindle and of course, shorter rods between the carbs....but that was not a problem, I just carefully filed the holes bigger on the bracket ends to fit onto the spindles properly, and just cut a small length off the rod to fit the triple spacing as opposed to the twin spacing which is further apart.
But for twin strommies.....they fit perfectly....

Anyway, just email me ( markh@mccays.com.au ), and let me know, so I can email them to you instead of posting on the forum.  )

Cheers
