Haha, I was originally using that SVT linkage on my 65mm, until SOMEBODY just HAD to have my SVT throttle body!

Ever thought about taking a drill bit and enlarging the hole in the 65mm linkage?

Also I just used a rubber spacer at the accelerator pedal end to take up the extra cable slack.

Two very simple fixes.

I posted all of this years ago though...

I still read the occasional good thread. I usually just don't post.

I suppose I could have done that. But I didn't think the thin plastic walls could really take that.

Then I killed 2 birds with 1 stone.
