Got the go part of the pedal system working. Still have to fashion a cover for the mechanism. Took a bit of trial and error to get the throw right. There are four pivot points that had to be correctly positioned in order to get it right. I needed 1,1/4" of cable pull in order for the carb to fully open. I wanted 3/4" of pedal travel in order to put the pedal at a comfortable position at static. Without the pivot points , the pedal gets too close to the tie rod during full throttle. 3/4" throw from nothing to wide open is gonna make for a touchy/ sensitive throttle so it should be interesting
So this parts in the done list. Moving on to stuff like oil cooler placement and such
