MK INDY blade Gear Linkage help please
I'm building an MK indy blade - coming along nicely - until I attempted to put the MK gear linkage kit together - can't quite seem to
figure out the best angles to use where the small rose joint connects onto the gear pin on the engine etc - has anyone got any detailed pictures of
each part of the linkage that would help me please - I've searched a few photo archives but not found any specific pictures that help yet..... -
thanks....

You could try Hellfire's build diary - usually a good point of reference.

Thanks - yes I've had a look at Hellfire's - in fact I've printed the whole build diary off - very useful (thanks guys) - however
I'm trying to see the linkage all connected close up if possible please - regards

Thanks Snoopy - diagram helps with the angle of the rose joints - I think I'm going to have to relocate my brake sender though!

Tell me, mine worked out so that when I press the gearstick forward go up the gears. Is that standard with the MK linkage or have I managed to get
things arse about face??
Most folks I knowwith BECs have to pull back to go up.
I mounted my 'pivot bit' on the drivers side footwell.

Post Blade 893cc engines had a different box so if they're mounted the same way the stick has to go opposite ways.
Our 893 is 1 forward, 5 back.

I didn't have a huge pile of room down there so I mounted it about the only easy way available. I think I had managed to put the fuel pump in
the way or something.
Anyhow I'm used to it now - no point in changing! Thanks for the info.
Cheers
Ali
