Can i use '73 linkage for '72 carbs?

[tranzor_Z]

I just recently accuired a set of '72 carbs with the manifold and air tube. In fact the only thing that the Carb setup i got didnt have is the linkage that connects on the airtube.

Now, I know that the '73 linkage rod (which i also have) is longer than the '70-72.

All i want to know is Can i use that '73 airtube and linkage with the '72 carbs?

This would save me a lot of heart ache! Thanks all i want to get rid of these DGV's.

Your picture appears to show a balance tube that does not have the linkage yoke installed. You will need a yoke that is compatible with 72 linkage. The 73 balance tube and yoke will not work, and I don't believe that it can be modified to work. ZTherapy can usually get you the parts that you need.

Did you buy these carbs and balance tube on eBay?

I got them from a friend who switched to mikkunis a while back.

Unfortunatley he's in the process of moving and has since thrown all the other bits away for the carbs.

I'll try and get a hole of Z-therapy about the missing bits, i was going to get there video and rebuild kit anyway.

Thanks guys.
