I installed the throttle hand lever last night and then tried to test fit the appearance group console tonight. I found that the throttle lever is too far forward to work as designed with the console.

Has anyone run into this situation before and found a solution?

I am considering turning the throttle lever around 180 degrees but I am not sure yet if this would work correctly or not. Too tired tonight to figure anything out but was hopeful someone had dealt with this already.

It functions identically to the original, but mounts in a different place on the tunnel,
thus eliminating interference with the console.

Hmm, that one looks like it might work in my '66 912. I have one of Mark's on my '74 w/carbs and wanted one for my 912 but it would have to occupy the same space as the heater lever. There's no reason yours won't fit a 912 is there, Chris?

I don't know enough about the 912 tunnel to answer.
