Throttle restrictors HELP
Does anyone know where I can find some device to restrict the movement of my throttle. I am trying to run a series that does not allow Throttle stops or any electronics. The only way I can see to run this is to restrict the operation of my throttle. I have seen a couple for 4150 and 4160 carbs but I have a dominator and need to come up with something in 2 weeks.
ANY IDEAS ????????????????

I seen a BBC Camaro this past weekend at the track it was a 427.
Not sure what was all in the motor but sitting on top was a Holley 2bbl...
It had a homemade wooden spacer under it. So I had to ask the guy why and he said he runs the 6.50 index (1/8th) and needed to slow the car down..It had been running 6.50's all day long... :shock:

Make an adjustable stop for your pedal. Use a piece of all thread, with some jam nuts. You can than Control how quick the car runs by adjusting the length. DO NOT USE A RESTRICTOR PLATE UNDER THE Carburetor. They cause distrabution problems.

I had good results with a vac carb and a screw to limit the sec opening, I had very good success with restrictor plates under the 2" spacer with out any bad effects and now I have Hilborn Stacks with the bolt deal in the acc petal and it is very easy to adjust. Later J. Smith 4621 racing sometime
