TR2/3/3A Carburetor Link Rod Ass'y Installation and Fuel Line Installation

I am trying to figure out how the horizontal (long) and the vertical (short) Link Rods go together onto the carbs? Anyone got some good pictures of a TR3 SH H6s all put together and mounted? Also begs the question; do the carbs get in the way when the body is lowered onto the frame? Leave'em off till after da tub is on the frame or does it matter.

Same thing with the fuel line, anyone have some good shots of the fuel lines installed, leave'em off "till after da tub is on the frame" or does it matter? Maybe just put in the front portion?? Suggestions and advice?

Thanks!

Leave the carbs off as they will only get in the way putting on the tub. In fact, I'd leave off the intake manifold also. As far as the fuel lines go, maybe just the one from the fuel pump to the front of the engine. The less encumbrances you have when dropping on the tub the better.

Here's some pics that might help with how the carb linkage is set up...
