Unanswered: Linkage for 2xWeber 45DCOE - Opel GT

What sort of linkage can I use (what is best) for two double Weber 45DCOE in my Opel GT? Is there any problems with space under the hood?

Try something like this.

I had no clearance problems with a similar set-up. Your mileage may vary.

The one that I am using has a very low profile - no clearance problem. I bought it at Eurocarb Ltd Dell'Orto from U.K. At current US Dollar exchange rate, the price including shipping is approx. US$ 120.00. Not cheap but I like dual cable reliability. Also, it allowed me to remove the most of complex standard linkage.

You might want to give a clue as to what intake you are using. Magnoletsi is 20 mm wider than canon or Dbilas where Imsher is closer to a stock dimension and the redline will actually fit. If it's a canon then use the rod type they suply and reverse the cross linkage behind the motor for it to be all stock. For the others go to any italian cable type and make 2 stantions for a common universal throttle cable Typicly one beside the secondary throttle rod and one between the twins. HTH
