[QUOTE="westgl, post: 95337, member: 2025"] Last work for today. 1. Finished cutting out the throttle cable Hold bracket, I really put that off, I knew building a part with manual tools i am better with power tools. 2. Cut out lower plate for Air Filter so that it would fit carb. top, installed Large O-ring as Carb to filter seal. To do list for tomorrow, yea like i am going to follow that list. 1. Oil & Filter change on engine, a couple of hydro locks and sitting for a while, i think it is a good idea, see that i am going to put it under a load and give it a test ride. 2. Air filter is going to be fastened by a piece of all thread, nut & a rubber washer, with metal washer, & Wing Nut. 3. Get a piece of hose for Crankcase breather to new air filter base plate 4. Longer screws into front of VW manifold for carb hold down, as new throttle Cable hold bracket, I am only two threads on the fastener, Mil spec requires at least 3.5 threads per fastener. Some Pictures #1 shows large O-ring as filter to carb seal #2 & 3 shows the uni-link throttle cable attachment, there is now way that oem cable end is getting out of there. #2 & #3, #4, & #5 you can see my cable hold Bracket, it still needs some primer & paint. #4 you can see the OEM "D" washer, & adjustment nut on the throttle cable Throttle cable may some slack taken out of it, but for now it is fine, fine for testing that is. I may also need a slight twist adjustment in the throttle cable hold bracket, so it is at a better angle. Throttle cable hold down Bracket is 3/16" thk. steel We do have Full Throttle with this cable and bracket combo, In fact, the OEM Honda throttle pull is Longer than this Weber Single Carb. Conversion setup. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [/QUOTE]
