    I purchased a bracket from Carmen he fabbed up. it will work, just not a factory stamping.
    25 bucks and a little shipping $ I will send it to you... it will work til you find one thats correct.

    I see by the diagram that there is no spring on the secondary carb linkage. Alot of the after market ones I see have a spring. Also I wonder if I can reuse my finned aluminum valley cover it looks like this 2x4 intake is a little deeper.
    Thanks

    Well I went back to single 4 barrel because I can't get the idle down. Lowest it would idle is 1500 RPM's checked for vacuum leaks and had none. I think the problem is somewhere in the secondary carb. Too close to cruising season so I put the single back on and it runs like a watch again.
