Default Re: '41 pickup accelerator rod

Update on my accelerator issue; I made one using three sixteenths dia. stainless rod and ends from Speedway. After installation and checking travel. and careful measuring , I get 9 inches between the two pivots. Also the "spoon" is farther off the floor.
I corrected my post because I realized while measuring something else that I used used the 1 mark on my ruler for the throttle pedal end and it read 10 at the carb. 10 minus 1 is 9. I apologize to the board.
