Just when you think that you have seen it all:

Today I am going to post a few more pictures about Holley Mechanical Linkage Carbs.

Then I will talk about Side Hung Bowls used on the Mopar and Ford Mechanical Linkage 6 pack manifolds. There was a reason why the side hung bows were used.

Then I will show you a picture of a Holley Tri-Power set-up that I would never have come up with but it has some interesting features.

So first I will post up the Pictures. Click on each picture to make bigger

So the first picture on the left shows a nice set of Mechanical Linkage 440 6 pack carbs that could be used on the Weiand "Rat Roaster"
intake manifold. The carbs use the Edelbrock style (Chebby Throttle Linkage) and a metering block with a idle circuit for each carb.
The carbs work really well plus they are large cfm. The Center carb is 355 cfm and the end carbs are 500 cfm each. The center carb has a venturi like a Holley 600 cfm Primary carb and the end carbs have venturis like a 850 cfm 4781 carb. So the real cfm is more like 850 plus 300 or 1150 cfm, not 1350 cfm. The third picture shows the side hung bowl. Apparently the computer posted the 1st pic twice, sorry about that. last pic is the one I will talk about in a bit.
