Got it off ebay .Its great and the original alfa link between the two carbs is better than the one supplied as my carbs are close spaced and the supplied one has to fit lots of applications and would foul my intake manifold and need modding. Its a pity its for north south motors and the pull is off to the right looking at the front of a crossflow mini.All good as the cables are super long.Full steam ahead now.

Have an adjustable pushrod made today
Pushrods will be correct for the application
Have a little aluminium square block locates over the ferrule for a standard mini accelerator cable
Converts it to dual cable and is reversible.Two extra quarter holes for cables .Block is threaded for adjuster on each cable.Mates that share skills.
