CEgg11 8 Report post ID: #1 Posted October 5, 2015 Hi all, its been a while since I've been on. The 240 is getting welded up, and so I've put stuff on the back burner for a while, but it will be back soon, so I am working on getting the engine ready to install. I've bought the "big" SU from a XKE I think. They bolt right up, but I dont know how I'll build a linkage that will open both carbs at the same time. Has anyone done this swap, and if so, how did you attack the issue?Many thanks!Curtis 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CEgg11 8 Report post ID: #3 Posted October 6, 2015 I did the same sort of search, but no luck regarding the linkage. Time to put on the old engineering hat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SteveJ 1,127 Report post ID: #6 Posted October 7, 2015 Curtis, Mr. Nix is just up the way in SC. I say we road trip to visit him after the floodwaters have receded. I'd like to take a look at the linkage just out of curiosity. What do you say, Steve? Do you allow miscreants into your garage? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
