Slant 6 Turbo 68Dart Project

Well today I'm waiting to get my cordless drill back from my sister who borrowed it, so I can drill out some holes in a throttle lever I'm making. It's going to extend the throttle arm that's on there. The stock one has a very small travel that doesn't allow the carb to open all the way when the pedal is floored no matter how I adjust the cable. Did some math, and got a nice position about 1 1/4" past the arm that I am going to use. This will also be a great spot for a straight down rod to operate the kickdown.

I've been using the stock kickdown for all the carbs I've put on the slant just with a different bent rod to the bellcrank for each different one. This one the arm on the throttle is too short even for that to work right - so this will solve two issues really.

Then I'll take a cruise to the hardware store again and see what I can do about the brake booster port.
