1964 f100 ball stud throttle linkage

Searched for it first but couldn't find anything about it. I bought this truck and everything has been tampered with and everything is jury rigged. Got it started and somewhat consistently running but the linkage from the ball stud on the carb to the throttle linkage is held together with bailing wire. I am looking for the correct part that connects the two ball studs. Any help is appreciated seems I've searched all over the Internet to find nothing.

Is the clip that hold the ball in the socket still there?.. Is the ball worn? Either way Holley or a good speed shop should be able to get you what you need...Good luck

I have modified mine exactly like this picture:

This linkage can be a problem though, as you hit the gas, the motor torques, and hits the gas more. This happened with my 302, and now with my 460 with this setup.

Are you wanting original or custom?

Welcome to FTE

Please, when asking questions, list ALL the pertinent info!

What size is the engine?
