Technical Dual Carb Push Rod Issue

Hi there fellow Hamb'rs. I have put a dual carb setup on my 261 and needing to figure out what to use as a spring return on the pushrod that I had to build. I do not weld.... so I was wondering if there's any other options out there?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Duplicate your spring tab on your old linkage with an extra hole so it slides onto the new linkage, then box it in with 2 of these of the proper inside diameter.

Nice... Like how your thinking....

What carbs are those?

 

Carter Weber's from Tom Langdon's.

These Carter Webers: 2 bbl, progressive. Throttle bores are 28mm primaries, and 32 mm secondaries?
My wife's got one on her mildly hopped VW 'Cal bug', 1700 cc. Works great, I've used them on 1600-2000 cc BMWs.
My son set up an intake with four of them on a SBC F.I. intake, with a flat plate for the carbs...large plenum underneath made for a 'satisfactory mix'...Love these carbs! They came on everything from BMWs to Pintos.

If you use Matt Davis's locking sleeves, just file-notch the rod for the set screws. Excellent idea, forgot those were available!

 

i would weld a tab, but a small hose clamp should work to hook the spring on.

 

Will consider this closed, thanks everyone.

Drill a hole in it put a cotter pin on the hole and hook the spring in the cotter pin.
