I ran a 3x2 set-up on my 56 Ford w/Fordomatic waaay back in 66. Since the car was completely stock when I got it the linkage bolted to the back of the intake manifold like some of your pictures show. Only problems I had was finding 3x2 linkage (ended up using pieces of my old Erector set) and adjusting the throttle linkage to the Fordo. Once I got that squared away it ran fine. Find a 55/56 2v w/Fordo linkage and you should be fine.

I've made a lot of throttle rods from threaded rod with automotive linkage pieces. All you need is the one from the stock type bellcrank to the center carb. Shouldn't be hard to figure out. If carb linkage is on the passenger side you need the back of intake 2 bbl linkage. If on the drivers side the regular 4 bbl bellcrank. Chuck

I am not going for a monster of a motor. The car is more of a cruiser and more show then anything but I want it to be able to get up and go aswell.

Ok, so everything from a 2v and 4v are totally different?

The bif worry I have is that I wamt to run the 573 with the big ports and the 573 doesn't have the 272 bellcrank mounting holes ok n the back side of the intake like the earlier y block.

More info or pics would be greatly appreciated.

The key is now the center carb. Is the long butterfly/throttle shaft on the drivers or passenger side? They used to sell replacement shafts for them but that was long ago. You can bolt down the 4bbl style bellcraknon either intake. I've seen setups with the main throttle linkage going to the drivers side and the progressive linkage on the passenger side of the front and rear carbs.

The parts you picture should do the trick. You can find articles on here about properly adjusting the kickdown. Once the bellcrank is fixed in the adjustment position you can simply hold the different rods up and see which fits and clears best. The right one should fit on the transmission and have adjustment available at bellcrank end. Once properly adjusted the kick down dosen't know what carb its connected to. Chuck

This old shaft kit included new shafts to run out either side.

Extended throttle shafts are still available for both 97's and 94's...

What I read here and understanding is that it would be much easier using a 2v bellcrank anf linkage but if I score a 4v set up it should work aswell just a lot more work.

For the 2bbl linkage you would need the smaller manifold with the bolts across the back. I think the later, drivers side bellcrank, works 2bbl or 4bbl setup. Chuck

Chuck,

If the 4v bellcrank will work for the 2v then everything else from the 4v should work too?
