Posted August 3, 200420 yr comment_89686 Does anyone know if there is a difference in the throttle linkage for a 70-71 and 72-73? I received a new chromed linkage from a 72 model and it doesn't exactly match my 71. I thought 70-73 would be the same since all had SUs. Thanks for your input............Keith Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/12748-throttle-linkage/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
August 3, 200420 yr comment_89687 Hey Keith, I had assumed they would be the same, can you tell us what the difference appears to be? Chris Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/12748-throttle-linkage/#findComment-89687 Share on other sites More sharing options...
August 3, 200420 yr Author comment_89695 Chris, this is the linkage from the firewall to the carb closest to the firewall. This isn't the linkage between the two carbs. The angle on one of ends where it connects is not the same. The other end is the same, as well as the length. My intake isn't on the head so I not sure if it will work.

August 3, 200420 yr comment_89708 Go to the Z therapy website. It shows great photos of all the combos. Not all are the same. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/12748-throttle-linkage/#findComment-89708 Share on other sites More sharing options...
August 3, 200420 yr comment_89709 You are refering to the linkage from the firewall to the bracket on the balance tube, not the lnkage between the two carbs, right?Linkages for 73 are different from 71, I know that much. Su's v.s. Flat-Tops.I never had the chance to compare 71 v.s. 72 linkages. (but I would expect them to be the same) Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/12748-throttle-linkage/#findComment-89709 Share on other sites More sharing options...
August 3, 200420 yr Author comment_89713 Carl, that is the linkage I was referring to. I also thought they would be the same. I will try to post a picture.
