Find a 2nd gen mop rod, they are longer and thicker. You will need to drill the hole in the mop rod lever arm larger, but it will work, then bend to fit. General consensus is you will need a 1" spacer between the carb and intake, both to block heat transfer and to allow the butterflies to fully open.

Here is my old manifold project. Cost was about $8 for a grinder bit, $3 for JB weld and the rest was just junk I had kicking around.
