Bell Crank Mounting

Thanks Henry - I will be installing the engine tin this weekend, will check to confirm that the bell crank ball lines up with the cutout for the throttle linkage coming from the transmission.

I've read that I will probably need to replace the bell crank mounted on the transmission with an earlier carb style bell crank to get the correct throw - otherwise I may find inconsistent pedal travel / throttle movement (touchy as you apply throttle).

The Clewett mount is pretty slick. I liked the idea that it will allow me to keep some separation between the fuel pressure reg/lines (which will be mounted to the firewall) and the coils. Wish I could claim credit for such a clean looking / functional design.

Once again, thanks for the input folks.
