Best linkage for Kardons | 356 Speedster, 550 Spyder, Replica, Automotive Community

R Thorpe

There are a lot of people out there making carb linkage. Is there a best? Why does VW put the linkage in front of the fan housing and not behind like Porsche and would a system of rods work better than a cable? Thank you.

The Porsche back-of-the-shroud linkage is great. Berg makes a "replica" of it that bolts on a VW shroud. I've never used either, but they look like they work well.

The linkage that I favor for Kadrons is the bellcrank style with pull-rods.

I’m running Scat linkage from CIP1 p\n C15-30050. I’m happy with it.

When I had Kadrons I used the Vintage Speed Best Linkage. Super rigid. Very adjustable. No slop.

I still have a complete set I'm going to sell. Let me know if you're interested.

Kaddie Shack specializes in Kadrons and has a simple but effective linkage system
