I am looking for a piece of the accelerator linkage for a 1956 223. I have the longer rod which goes from the pedal linkage on the firewall. I have the little flipping piece that sits on a bolt on the intake manifold. But I need the short rod that then must connect to the ball on the carb which is a Holley 1904. any ideas where i could find the little rod? thx, david baldwin

 

Hmmm.. I may have one.

 

great thanks

i'll take a picture of the sequence of parts that I have and send it along.

 

if panelman doesn't have one heres two possibilities . one any 54 through 56 v8 and six used the same linkage on the left side of the intake versus the right side contraption i have on my flathead .......... dennis carpenter sells the whole shabang for like 48 bucks in his catalog . if neither of these work dig into reds online catalog or speedways street rod catalog or their dirt track catalog as you will find all sorts of things you can use to accomplish what you want , unless your trying to go for one of those puckered **** restorations where its gotta be 100 percent the way it was or it will never do ................

Welcome to FTE

I asked a moderator to move your thread to the 1961/66 forum as you'll get more help there. This is the 1948/56 forum.

Tis a common mistake typing initial threads in wrong forums.

 

Thanks for the redirect...
