Thanks to Gary and Mike (my restoration/mechanic guys) who can make anything work. It took a lot of fabrication to get the carbs, linkage and valve covers etc to work with this intake! The intake was NOS and I really wanted something on the car that would take you back to the old C/FX days of making a 273 run in that class....even though the engine in the car is now a 360.
I can't imagine that linkage working correctly (as in the carbs opening the same amount) when one of the arms (where the links attach) is pointed forward and the other is pointed back. If you say it works, I'll have to take your word for it.
If the lengths of the arms are the same, then they should open the same
I've set up tunnel ram linkages for cross mounted dual Holley carbs with the arms on the shafts pointed towards the front of the carbs at around a 45 degree forward and the moved them so they where mounted around 45 degrees to the rear, forward works better
I also experimented with the side linkages and bell cranks at 45, 90 and around 120 degrees from straight up
