Anyone got photos of what they did on their carb linkage after swapping over to a B Intake.
I put a B Intake on my 56 Fairlane 3 speed o/d with a Summit 600 carb. Dealing with the stock funky accelerator mechanism and losing my patience.

See if these pictures help.  The bell crank at the firewall was lengthened so that the linkage to the carburetor would be level.

did basically the same as Ted did..  Used the stock arm that sticks up, spaced it out a little toward the left to line it up with the carb and ran a rod to the carb..  I did have to add a piece to the stock arm to lengthen it

Thunderbird's are different.  My 55 with a three speed manual and O/D has a B manifold and a Holley carb swap.  The stock linkage worked without modification.
