Triple Carb linkages

[John]

The Carby on the left is the type of accelerator linkage my BXOV-1s have. The other carb is the type of linkage needed to bolt the linkage kit I got from redline to bolt the 3 linkages together.
Im guessing I need to go for 3 x 70mm rods and use the linkage that runs along the manifold instead.?

Any other option?

Thanks guys

John,

Some options in here:

Most reliable way is to use a divorced linkage - single rod that runs parrallel to the manifold, and three seperate arms (one for each carb).

Cheers,
Harv

I was going to use the divorced linkage setup on mine but I found that with the triple speco manifold it fouled the firewall.

When my BXOV-1 carbs were re-kitted I got the butterfly rods re-bushed and I think they used a new rod and a nut on the end to tighten it up. Would these parts be the same as a carb from a red motor?

I used red motor throttle shafts when I had mine rebushed Stewart, I prefer linking them at the throttle shaft because I think it looks neater/cleaner I've always done them this way twins or triples
