6.1 Hemi into 72 Demon March 2018
So today I sorted out throttle linkage. I am not happy with it but it will suffice for now. I had to machine my own piece for the FAST throttle body out of brass. Note to self do not under any circumstances run lathe while drinking adult beverages! Ask me how I know? I somehow managed to thread my part incorrectly to 5 mm .80 thread pitch which forced me to then utilize Allan head bolt to pinch throttle wire and ensuing jam nuts. Butt ugly but effective! I will refine it later! I was pretty happy to step away from lathe with all my fingers intact. I only ran tool stand into chuck maybe once? Dang piece was really really small!
