I didn't see anyone making those brackets when I searched for one.I ended up making the bracket for the throttle and the OMP.BTW in case you're wondering what size the nuts for the linkages will be the carbs threads are 7mm.I have to wait 2 weeks to put my linkages one because no one here can get 7mm hardware.

Pierce Manifolds: http://www.piercemanifolds.com/products.htm, has Weber and I think some parts for the Dells. There is a list of suppliers at Vintage Rotarys: http://www.vintagerotaries.org/



Scroll down to the carburetion sub-forum and find the thread "Everything you wanyed to know about rotary carbs"



There is another big carb supplier that I can't think of offhand, it's listed in the thread. The bell crank and throttle cable hook up for the Weber dcoes and the Dell dhlas are nearly identical. There are 2 main types of cable holders. One bolts to the carb, the other to the air cleaner. I prefer the carb version.



As far as oil injection, some of the carbs have a plug that can be replaced with a barb for the oil lines. If your carb has no such provision, you can drill and tap a 1/8" NPT threaded hole in each primary runner of the intake and install a brass barb found in most any hardware store plumbing section. A 3rd oprion is the manner in which Rotary Engineering did their's. They drilled a hole in the throttle bores and press fitted a 1/8" brass tube with a bulb flare on the outside end. This tube projects into the throttle bore just above the fuel supply venturi. This method probably provides the best way to mix the oil with the fuel mix.
