I'm putting this in the 84-85 thread because the truck is a 84 but with a early style 20r engine

Anybody got a picture of how to hook up the throttle linkage to a new Weber 32/36 carburetor on a 20r? I'm kind sol for using what was on there because 1st it was a Aisin carburetor and 2nd it was on a 22r manifold on the 20r head, a real cluster ####

Carburetor is on the new cannon 20r intake, but the throttle linkage that was on the mickey mouse setup is useless! Any pictures of their set up would really give some idea of what to do, although I think I'm going to have to fab something up.

You think that all these companies that "push and sell these Webers" would come up with a kit for a few different engines and models to make the conversion easy instead of everyone have to fab something to make it work. "HEY PARTS COMPANIES OUT THERE, ARE YOU LISTENING" so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Check some of the 20R build threads. Was the only solution an aftermarket manifold?

Well, I Wanted the Weber 32/36 carb and I didn't want all the spacers so I got one that the Weber bolts right on to with no spacers.Regardless, I didn't have anything other then the plate that bolted up to the 22r manifold. I cable/spring part that bolts to the carb is ok (after i fixed it, added some home made bushing to reduce the wobble) so I just need to make a bracket that can bolt to the 2 threaded bosses on the manifold. Also, the threaded bosses need to be filed flat. Why would they make a manifold with threaded bosses and not make them flat???? Things like that just piss me off...

Perhaps, not sure, the threaded bosses need to be like that for the 20R linkage. Have you looked at 20R linkage to see if it will possibly fit. Or, it could be they were cheap or they forgot one of the finishing operations. Or . . .

Of what I can see with the 20r linkage it was way different, it seems that the linkage was attached to the firewall. Silly, but that's what I've seen. I'll just make a bracket to fit.

Never mind wrong thread.
