weber ida to 12a omp pump??

What is needed to hook up my IDA to the stock 12a omp pump. All I have is the lines but I dont have the rod or see where it would hook to the carb even if I did have it. How is everyone hooking this up?

Thanks for any pics or advise

My motor
13b 4port
12a front cover
48 ida weber with mods to accept the lines already

The carb has already been modded accept OMP lines? Well that's the hardest part, and it's already done. The rest is easy. Take some mechanic's wire and open the OMP so the lever is horizontal in the 9 o'clock position. Take your set of 12A lines and figure out a simple way to extend them from the stock Nikki position to where ever the new position is on the IDA. I like to use some of the rat's nest tubing if I have it handy. Otherwise get some vacuum line from Napa or whatever. Take something of similar size to represent the OMP nipples so you get the right size tubing.

Wire it at the 9oclock position Ok I seen it done like that before just didnt know if that was the best way or only way to do it with a weber. I might try to figure out a way to do it with a rod or maybe a cable. If not Ill just wire it open or premix.
