No kit available.
As they are like kads in the sense there is no left and right carb, you will either have to mount them like Kads with the mechanism at the front and
have a push pull linkage or have them side ways with a reversing pulley.
Get in contact with Kombikim.
He is running a rather unique set up of twin progressives with the reversing set up.

Which way are you going to mount them... which direction is the throttle shaft. The Ken Virgin set up works well. I had these on my 56 for a few
years.
Its proberly the easist to make a well.

which way do u want to sit the throttle arms.... same as stock running across the car or turn them so they run front to back.
The Virgin linkages run across the car not front to back
What are the manifolds and carbies you have
Are the manifolds you have steel or Alloy ??
Come n have a look at my ones first.

OK first of all you need 1 or 2 old stuffed blocked 1200 40hp manifolds... I presume your fitting them to a 1200 40hp ??? right or 36 hp which
ever you need
Get this and cut the end pieces off where they bolt onto the heads so you have the flange and a bit of the upriser. If you can find 2 it will save
you making the carby flange as well cut this off and trim.
this has to be ground away so a new bit of bent pipe can be made and welded into position.
The manifold pipes are about 200mm long and have to be bent to suit the engine and fan housing LOOK at mine lots of grinding and bashing here to
get them right
This combo gives great torque and better than fitting a Judson... I have had both fitted to a 36hp ...
