Please include Year, Make, Model etc.. when posting (http://forum.73-87chevytrucks.com/smforum/index.php?topic=5220.msg24910#msg24910)

For TBI it's two pieces, rod and link.  Although it is doubtful that you'll find a source for new parts, the part number of the rod is dependent on the year/model of the vehicle and engine.  The part number of the link is the same for all factory TBI (376197) of our vintage.  Plan on visiting your favorite salvage yard.
