I just got my 52 mm Tb from GoWesty for my 75 L-Jet conversions.
Question for those who have done this is what to do with the throttle linkage arm or throttle stop. I hear you just flip the linkage arm 180 degrees? Move the stop to the other side? Seems putting on the OE linkage would be even more trouble.... Please advise.

Best Regards

The solution was right there.... I used the write up by VaccaRabite: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...p;#entry2914136

I did not cut the New bracket to the 52 mm, I just needed to use the old OEM arm with the new one too.

Just take off the lock nut, hex nut and the washer off and add the the OEM arm to the assembly. Add the washer, nut and lock nut and you are done.

It the pics you can see the tail pip expander tool Used to pen the plenum to 53 mm and light rolled the edge to keep from digging into the gowesty gasket

This is a pretty neat update to L-Jet. I should have done this to a 2.0 I installed L-Jet on years back.
