We show that,
given any $n$ and $\alpha$,
any embedding of any sufficiently large complete graph in $\mathbb{R}^3$
contains
an oriented link with components $Q_1, \ldots, Q_n$
such that for every $i\not =j$, $|{\rm lk}(Q_i,Q_j)|\geq\alpha$
and $|a_2(Q_i)|\geq\alpha$, where $a_{2}(Q_i)$
denotes the second coefficient
of the Conway polynomial of $Q_i$.
Keywords:
