Looks like a nice piece Bill! Looks very well made.

I know with 911 or 914-6 carbs you often must bend the linkage arms to get the proper geometry. That is, the pull rods are exactly the same length but the carbs are not both on the idle stops, so you've got to loosen the linkage brackets and re-position, and then bend if that doesn't work. Ccould this be a problem with this kind of set up and since you go from the bell crank right to the carb? I guess you've got to get whatever mechanical adjustment you need on the carb?

I've always wondered about thermal expansion of the engine with a center pull bell crank linkage, does the engine expand enough when hot to take slack out of the linkage? I haven't ever used a center bell crank type of linkage.
