Hey Ken... I just got some long rods from A&L and just trimmed to fit or cut 2 and weld them together. I will look for some pics for you but I think most mount the rod to the rod that links the two carbs. The bell-crank I think you are talking about the lever. You can just make one with some flat stock. If you need something cool looking machined just pm me.

If you can post a pic of your intake in would help.

I found one BCCH thanks for the pic.Do you have any trouble with the springy ends of the rods opening enough to come off whem pulling or pushing on the rods. [Do you know what in getting at]??? Thanks for the pic also,will print it up. ken ct. Are either on those rods over 10 1/2 inches long. I have the connectord like you got. ken ct.
 
This is not my car just one I saved over time. I thought I had more pics of twin carb set ups But this is the only one.
I only have one carb on mine for now. But I have had no trouble with using the stock linkage rods. This set up has been on my car for 3 years and over 5000 miles

What kind of trouble do you have with the rod ends?? Do they acually come off the ball??ken ct Any cures.
 
Ken ct, I haven't had one come off yet (stock carb) BUT I replaced mine with new (the good ones) and had a bear of a time to get them on, so I don't think they're going to come off. Hope this helps.
