Paul,
Thanks for the drawings.  The dimensions have to adjusted if you use a 2"
runner.

Yes. Just an idea at this point.

Paul,
If you use Teflon as the brown throttle plate would the cam follower
bearings be required?  The throttle linkage would be a rod not just a cable.

Joe Berki
Limo EZ

It might work. The problem is applying equal force to two of these
side by side six inches apart. There is no doubt Teflon would
require higher forces. There is up to 45 pounds of normal
force on the slide and Teflon has a coef of friction of .06
as I recall so each Teflon slide would have a sliding force
of about 2.7 pounds worst case no turbo.
