Adjusting Three Peice Kickdown Linkage

See the holes in transfer crank assembly. Install an appropriate drill bit through them. Adjust the carb linkage rod to just touch the throttle shaft at idle position. Adjust the lower linkage to The neutral Area first and add length as needed Through the adjustment To obtain full throttle Application at the trans for full application of the kick lever. The manual describes it to the point!

Seems the carb linkage is upside down to me. Not as familiar with SB setups but the manual is pretty specific. Generally the throttle rod to the transfer crank is from the top not from below as shown. In other word flip the rod over and pin from the opposite side toward the fender.
