Originally posted by warmonger: I lengthen the shaft with an additional piece. I actually will weld it on and the shape the new slot/tab myself to the correct angle. Then I'll tack weld the linkage lever on. If need be I make a new thottle stop. If you host it I'll send you a comparison picture of one I did last week. gimme an email.
Got it...I have put the shaft in a lathe and drill/tap the end and use a screw/lock washer to attach the linkage lever. Works very good but the shaft is still short as mentioned. I have the tools and ability to make completely new shafts but it is a PITA to do. The entire shaft needs to be turned down do to it being an odd diameter so starting with larger dia. S/S stock is necessary.
Sure I'll host it...sent you a PM with e-mail
Thanks,
Scott
