Help with carb hook up for 948 Bugeye

I am unsure how to 1) hook up the stirrup to the jet lever assembly, 2)hook up the two throttle springs, and 3)how the choke cable bracket hooks up. I have included a pic of how I think they go together. Can someone tell me if this is correct? If there is anything wrong, can someone tell me how to correct it? Thanks for your help.
Kevin

Thanks, Jack. I recently went to a British car show, and not one person had their Bugeye stock. I normally go there to drool, dream, and use cars as references. Am I going to be the only one on the road with a stock Bugeye?

I had a setup of H1's on my 948 but swapped them for a nice set of HS2's. From my experiences your setup looks good.
Of course you need the choke cable to go through a mounting above the stirrup and have something on the end to come up against the 'hole' in the center so it will pull up. Then springs at the ends of the levers pull it back down.

Non stock.

Elec fuel pump
Screw type stainless hose clamps
Stainless bolts and nuts except for grade 8 ones.
Tires not orginal type.
Seat belts hidden behind seats.
Floor carpet rather than rubber.
1098 exhaust manifold
Crank case breather where manual fuel pump went
Modern Battery and cables
Screw on oil filter.

Now you know. Miss Agatha is not perfet except in my mind, LOL.

Mine is mostly stock, except for the slightly modified radiator and a later distributor. Beyond that, it's a stock setup through and through.
