the fairlane has a rod system connecting the gas pedal to the carb, not a cable. since i am changing carbs, the original rod for the 4100 carb does not work with the holley.

so i need to make an adjustable rod to connect this to the throttle lever on the carb ... that is a coat hanger on there in the pic

anyway i just thought you guys might find this topic interesting ...



1/4-20 threaded rod, 3/4" coupling nut
gotta love the drill press!



not tapped yet


the threads were cut with a #8-32 tap
