Paul,In the attached, you can see how close the Carb Heat is to the throttle.With just a little more thought, you could make it side-by-side with thethrottle, too. I have found no reason for a friction lock. Gary BootheNX308MBHey Guys (and a few girls). im about to fabricate the throttle as per plans and was wondering what folkshave done to incorporate a friction device and carb heat. i guess the obvious spot for the friction would be at the pivot point, but iwasnt sure if enough friction could be added at that point to make iteffective. would like the carb heat along side the throttle to make it a seemlessoperation. any ideas? would like to keep it as original as possible.
