Rick,your PM box is full also.The changover brought back ALL pm's going back YEARS,,,,,,,,,,LOL.

I tweaked the arm with the roller on it and re-aligned the other side so it pulls straight.Need to find the time to get back in the garage and install new cable as the one that was there is frayed.


HEMI-ITIS has no cure.
My condition is fully BLOWN!!

You have two choices..........either increase the pedal travel, or change the ratio on the linkage.

Looking at your pics, you have every piece of your linkage in the holes farthest from the pivot point. makes it easy to mash the throttle, but the throttle has to move further to open it all.

First thing I would try is moving the cable one hole closer to pivot point.............or.......move rods down a hole on carb linkage. Either of these require less pedal travel, to achieve more carb opening
