Okay, I am helping out the Schley Brothers restore their Lightning Bug dragster. Originally, Paul used Empi linkage for the IDAs, but on the engine rebuild, he did not have the cast Empi collars that mount to the top of the Webers. So, they used the Tayco/Bugpak stamped brackets to dyno the engine. But we all know, things could look better. So, anyone with a pair of orginal Empi castings, please let us know. It is certainly going to a good cause/home! Thanks, Dean

Deano I have a couple of set. Do you need original ball end also? Ball end size is different than todays Tayco style linkage...as you may know. Today's Tayco style linkage kit come with larger ball end. You can re-tap the EMPI cast mount and you can use ball end and muching size cross bar from today's tayco style kit. Tell me where to send to...then you can have it!  |
