Mechanical stops
Do you guys have any input on mechanical throttle stops. Do they work well? Who makes a good one etc.? Thanks.

Re: Mechanical stops
Are you referring to a fixed restrictor plate type stop or a timed under carb stop ?

Re: Mechanical stops
I am talking about a fixed linkage type, possibly under carb type, I just don't have a lot of hood clearance. I just need to slow up around .2 to .3

Re: Mechanical stops
Jeff,
I use the 4500 style ET genie, before that I made a stop out of an aluminum spacer. I may still have a 4150 style stop that I use to use on smaller motors. Rob |

Re: Mechanical stops
If it were me, I would just make the carb adjustable on the secondaries or a positive stop under the pedal. For .2 secs on your et slip you may need that in the summer heat. Save your money.

Re: Mechanical stops
Hacksaw's right for that little amount I'd dead bolt under the pedal or linkage ,or use weight .
Way back when I ran Super Street , I dead stopped for the main amount and adjusted up or down for the last .10th or so with weight ,
