"Back in the Saddle" tonight for a bit of time.
I had a PY Member send me a PM asking about the Tri-Power Linkage I can up with for my Holley carb set-up using the Barry Grant Holley Intake Manifold.
I will post a picture or two of the way Ford did their Tri-Power Linkage, I will post up a Holley Set-up copying the Pontiac Tri-Power linkage, and I will post up a Pic of other linkage ideas.
This might take 3 posts by the time I post up the pictures and explain each set-up.
So here we go:
So the first picture shows a Pontiac Factory Tri-Power Linkage that connects the two end carbs (that most are well aware of).
The second picture shows a Ford Factory Tri-Power Linkage with the difference being ALL of the carb linkage is on one side of the carburetors. You have a center carb lever and you have end carb levers clearly shown in the picture.
TWO OF THE THREE PICTURES BEING FORD CARB LINKAGE BUT THERE IS A DIFFERENCE IN THE CENTER CARBS LEVER.
The middle picture shows the curved center lever and the third picture shows the "upside down" "L" linkage arm.
