Charlie,
I am working at getting "full" pedal and easily on the assembly that is pictured.
Presently, with floor mat/backing and original foot pedal linkage, I'm getting about half throttle. As pics show the linkage, as configured, does not have sufficient travel with foot pedal to flr mat ...for other end to open carbs fully. In other words there is insufficient travel of (pictured) right end of (STOCK) throttle linkage. Bending won't help anything. I think that it's a matter of leverage...that is , end of stock link is too short
And, this setup is not parallel, but downward pointed. Whereas, I think that the '32 that can be mounted on cowl (as on '32) can eliminate the intake mounted manifold lever (bellcrank) and be connected , via rod directly to carb.
Make any sense and or suggestions from what you see??
