Difficult to provide verification at this point, but I recall (20 years ago), seeing specific descriptions for a carb that referenced "reverse-pull linkage, for Pantera" and it stuck in my head. Trying to search today doesn't yield any results. Trying to search "Pantera" on Holley's web site is fruitless as no matter what I do, it changes the search to "pattern." Stupid search engine anyway.
I may have seen it when buying the new Carter carb for the Mach I over 20 years ago, but I'm pretty certain I remember it.
I may be wrong though. It wouldn't be the first time.

I am ignorant of Pantera-specific carbs. I suppose that may
be true, but I have never heard of that. Are you sure of that?
Very curious, Chuck Engles

Larry,
At some point, Holley and other carb manufacturers sold a
Pantera-specific version of their carbs that were set up from the
factory with reverse-pull linkage. Is it possible you have such a
carb?

All,
Thanks to Chuck Engles for the photo of the carburetor-mounted
adapter bracket.
2511 has never had any carb-mounted adapter, which now makes me
wonder if the throttle cable geometry is incorrect.
So, new topic:
Can we see some photos of throttle cable brackets that mount to the
front of the intake manifold under a manifold bolt, anchoring the
forward portion of the return spring?
Thanks,
Larry
