I spent some time trying to figure out how to get the proper length throttle rod for my conversion and I came up with this.....what do you think?

Looks nice. However, will it maintain rigidity under load? The factory used tubing for the bow, probably because of the inherent strength. It's lighter, too. Let us know how it works out!

It seems strong and I get full throttle! We will see!

I have another stock rod, if this doesn't work I can make another one using another material!

I think it will work for my FI. I am not autocrossing it! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
