    Brien - Yes; it's an illusion. Pics below show my mounting better.

    Note: Subsequent to this last picture, I moved the rod end down in the slot on the lever arm so that I get less throttle response. In other words, it takes a lot of pedal movement to get a little throttle body movement. I also added throttle return springs at the throttle body (it's patently unsafe to rely on the throttle body spring to bring you back to idle) with a bit of stretch to stiffen the throttle pedal.
