Also looks like you need to turn your arm so the two holes are at the bottom.
2935 ford,
Your second pic is a bit blurry to my ole eyes, but it kinda confirms what an early conclusion ...that I've come to, that is- that the SLANTED LINKAGE in your first pic , in my pic and in several other pics that guys have sent me is WRONG ! You are correct, I believe, that my bellcrank is not correctly positioned. BUT this bellcrank is NOT going to correct the problem like your SECOND pic linkage has corrected it! Your improvised bellcrank shows horizontal/parallel linkage and more correct use of mechanical leverage...thanks for your ideas/input
Anyone got something better...please show is a pic
