Kickdown rod

I'm helping Mr. Bubbles, aka Steve, with his project and we did the bending thing successfully but the problem is that the rod is too short even with the adjustments on the rod going from the bellcrank down to the trans. We can make some mods to the 2-bbl rod to get the length close but we're trying to get an original look to the Formula S clone and not have it look hacked up.
