You'll probably have to tap some fittings into the manifold for the metering lines and find some way to hook the linkage up.

As for the throttle bracket... just use your imagination. For my Weber I used a couple parts off the Nikki and fabricated the rest from aluminium. Turned out really well.

If ur carb is for a rotary, then the connection for the metering rod to the carb is already there, u just use the stock rod, as for the oil lines, use a vac "T" down at the pump to make the 2 lines into 1, then attach to the primary float bowl with nipple type fitting screwed in place where u check float level. This is the only pic I have so u can only see the vac hose I use for the oil line to the float bowl.

if your pre-mixxing, no reason to use the omp and lines. you know that, i know you do. the bracket should be pretty easy to fab up along with a return spring 'perch'. where you place the bracket will be important, make sure it's placed to where the pedals on the floor and the carb. is wide open.
