I was surfing the inter web and found a $5.76 electrical fuel pump. It is 2-4 psi and 5-7 gpm. I bought two fo them. I will test them and report back. At this price every one should have a spare.

Hi All I have had the rod arm slip a couple times and what I found was the clamps were not tightened enough. Maybe I need to change steel alloys. Out of 800 linkage kits I have made I have only had 7 reports of slipping clamps. Aside from welding or Knurling any ideas on how to stop this. Both of th...

Hi Duke You have a mix of my Full Bearing linkage for the primary's and then the stock-ish looking linkage for the secondary's. That is an older linage kit. I stop using Hex rod for the down rods eight years ago. Yes the springs and tubes are for the secondary choke lock outs but your choke lock out...

Hi

I am going to be doing some rather long distance traveling in the near future and need to know if you can flat tow, all four wheels on the road, my 64 Corvair behind my RV? It is a manual trans. 200-300 miles at a time.

Thanks

David I have sent you an email.

Hi All I am back from a month long vacation. I have been building my Throttle linkage for 14 years and never took a day off. So now I am back fully recharged and ready to build more STUFF. PM or email me to get my latest catalog dated Jan 1, 2024. I had to raise a few prices. That also is a first in...

Hi Every one in Corvair Land It has been reported to me by Archibald Evans and Starr Cooke that I am dead. Looks like I died some time in November last year. I don't feel dead because my back still hurts. So I'm alive and still making my Full Bearing Throttle Linkage and other Corvair items. Just r...

Would you please send me the bigger version of this picture "204d278298841cdca3ccb797aa2171b1.jpg" And any others of the motor and linkage. I am Roger Parent and I made the throttle linkage for this engine. I would like pictures for my records. I did not make it to the Swap this year. Than...

Absolutely no replies at all. So this design goes to the same place as my Holly 390 center mount linkage went. All back of the bus.

Win some, lose some.

Hi All Turbo People: Well my Full Bearing Turbo Throttle Linkage is finished. But before I offer it for sale I need to explain the modification you will have to make to the intake manifolds cross shaft mounting flanges. As you can see in the first picture you will have to enlarge the center hole in ...

Hello to all and Happy New Year. Good news the 1966 Secondary with full Bearing Support is finished. Well the prototype is anyway. See attached pictures. To save on costs I used the 1965 Bell Crank support mount. This in effect moves the bell crank pivot point a little further away from the primary,...

Thanks for putting in the picture.

Believe it or not I got everything on eBay. But I but in qty, 25 pieces and up. You can get all the hardware at a good hardware store. You don't need to use Stainless Steel. Get the Heim joints from any good off road house.
