Thanks & regards, JLB

Where does that copper tubing attached to the road draft pipe lead?

Pete,

Thanks a lot for the photos! 

Interestingly enough, your photos are very helpful; but, now, also serve to confuse me a bit more because your setup is, again, "different" from all the others I've seen in other photos posted here - what a variety!

All the varieties shown have also got to be "interesting" to some other folks here too!  I'm hopeful that this information can help someone else too: Perhaps one of the moderators would like to edit some of the photos & information in this thread & place it as a "sticky" for future use for "everybody"?

Regards, JLB

That is the manifold vacuum source on the 57 ECZ-B intake for booster/wipe rmotor.

The line is copper and maybe a gig should be considered ...

JLB, keep in mind my throttle linkage is for a Holley 4150 TYPE carb and also controls the 55 aircooled FOM and the KICKDOWN that allows passing gear.
Very important, almost vital for this set-up. If your glasstop has a FOM YOU NEED THIS feature. Do your homework NOW and not after. Good luck Pete

Oh, My bad. Looked like it was attached to the road draft pipe!

Folks,

My sincere thanks to two people who were both very helpful with both photos and offers of parts: Carl & Oldmics.  They sent various photos and other information.  And I had phone conversations with both, too!

I'm very appreciative to both!

I've now purchased some parts from Oldmics; and, hope that I can "kludge" working linkage together with those and other parts.

Regards, JLB
