I got my new throttle bracket in. I had to stare at it for longer than I want to admit before I saw how it went together. got it assembled ( no instructions at all) and went out to install it. the first issue I had was that the carb studs aren't long enough. so I was dead in the water right off the bat. I will try and grab a set tomorrow. I already have 1 inch over stock studs for a spacer I needed for clearance. I hope they make 2 inch over studs. the second issue I noticed was that the bracket didn't seem to have a place for the transmission cable. after looking it over there may be a piece for that after all. if its not one thing its another. oh well. it will look and work great once I get this done.
