I have to make a LEVER for the throttle and need a measurement in order to drill the holes in the correct place. Specifically, I need to know the distance between (A) the rod against the firewall that goes to the gas peddle and (B) the throttle linkage rod from the carbs that attaches to the LEVER that connects to the gas peddle rod.
Hope this does not confuse you as much as it does me.

Thanks

Larry
 
If "B" is Moss #676-030, the Manuals say 11.94 inches between pivot centers.
 
Was thinking he meant that at first Ken, but not sure.
Hopefully you are right and he has his answer and will let us know
 
Sorry,
I meant lever. I'm looking for the distance between the holes on the lever that mounts to the horizontal shaft from the gas pedal. This lever pulls the throttle linkage.

Maybe I should have had another cup of coffee this AM.

The part I made is BC8. I just want to get the holes in the right place.
A lot of parts were missing when I got the car so what I can't find I make. Working on the linkage right now but missing this lever and the linkage mounting bracket "BC17". May have to make it as well since I haven't found one of those either.
 
Larry make a drawing and show exactly what you need
