Vixen series 2 carb swap??

[heightswitch]

Hi guys.

I have just purchased a shiny new weber 32/36 DGV to replace the 1969 vintage 32DFM as fitted to my series 2 vixen.

The carb linkage pivots on the opposite hand so my existing throttle linkage doesn't fit. I have a spare 32/36 DGAV on another manifold which came as a spare with the car. I notice the inlet manifold on the spare DGAV has 3 threaded holes tapped into it to take a bracket?

I am thinking back to my old MK 2 escort days, but seem to remember a metal bracket and rod which bolts to this to operate the throttle.

Am i correct in thinking that the series 3 vixen which used the capri crossflow has the same linkage etc as the one I obviously need and also the threaded manifold??

It seems that I can sort the problem by using the spare manifold with new carb, series 3 linkage and bracketry. has anyone else done this swap. also has anyone else who has converted to webers got the old bracketry going spare (near to rochdale)

any ideas Guys?
