Preheat oven to 350. Liberally grease and flour a 12-cup Bundt pan. Make cake: In a medium bowl, sift together flour and salt; set aside. In a large bowl, with electric mixer on medium speed, beat butter, sugar, and lemon and lime zest until pale & light, about 5 min. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each. Gradually add flour mixture, just until blended. Stir in soda. Pour batter into prepared pan and bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 1 hr, 15 min. Cool completely in pan on a rack before inverting onto a plate.
