Hi,
After a long time waiting to get throttle linkage pieces made I now have a complete linkage for a roadster. I think it'll also work in a coupe.

NEW PRODUCT MADE IN UNITED STATES!!!
This mechanical linkage is made to fit the FFR Roadster. Features billet aluminum mechanical lever arms with adjustment slots, stainless steel 3/8" throttle shaft, throttle rods that are capable of bend to shape yet still be strong, FK 3/8" throttle shaft pivots with 1.5" stain steel washers for firewall, FK rod ends for throttle rods including 1/4" x 28 tap to finish aluminum linkage rods.
I have this kit for $179.00 and ready to ship 8 kits now.
Let me know if you're interested or have any questions.

I had to make my own linkage last summer before Mike had his available. I am sure Mikes will be great quality and all I can say is you won't believe how much better this is than a cable. I had a very well done cable on mine but did the rod linkage. When I left my garage the first time I went around the block and came back. The gas pedal effort was so low that it was very hard to drive. I ended up using two return springs vs one. Mike's price is very reasonable compared to what I had in mine. Good job Mike!
