It was indeed Traindriver. I have one of the plates I got from him. A nice piece of work. I remembering Rick asking me where I got the fancy plate. LOL. There was a very good reason why I got it too. Some of the other methods of linking the carbs don't actuate them in 100% sync. Traindriver designed the linkage setup that I have as a way to prevent that so all of the carbs are throttled up in sync. I didn't believe this until I got the carbs/manifold from the vendor I purchased it from and looked at their linkage setup. It was apparent that the left carbs were being opened a small percentage more than the right carbs. Installing this plate made that go away.
