Default Pictures of new finished throttle

As a follow-up to " Alternate throttle for XKE" here are photos of the finished cable operated throttle showing spring returns for each carb and Jaguars Jack-shaft to throttle butterflys connections. let me know what you think.

Looks very tidy on the carb side. How does it work?

This system works very smoothly and provides complete adjustment independently for each carb. the carb arms were from speedway motors at $9. each and the cables were rear bike break cables at $6. each. See also" Alternate throttle for XKE."
