Linkage for Jenvey / Raceline TB on Duratec

[catastrada]

I'm completing the installtion of my new 2.3 Duratec in my RHD S3 Chassis.

The throttle linkage still need to be fixed. I found quite a lot of archives on the BC but as they are quite o!d no links (pictures, web pages...) Are working.

The general point of view says the Jenvey linkage is not the best solution.So any suggestion is more than welcome !

The Jenvey linkage is the best solution mounted underneath TBs long cable clipped to stays and chassis rail, no sharp bends but you may wish to put some heat shield around cable near exhaust primaries

Thanks a lot for the reply.

Is it this linkage kit and those brackets ?

 

 

[Pendennis]

Linkage kit is correct but not sure on the brackets, my linkage bolts to the back of the TB bottom trumpet bolt cylinders 1 & 2 so don't think I used those brackets

As I thought I have this bracket

FWIW, there's a description of what I did at http://www.blandings.net/duratec.htm#throttle

And discussion of a subsequent modification at https://www.lotus7.club/forum/techtalk/changing-jenvey-throttle-lever

Thanks Adam

i made a simple L shape fixed to the big blanking plate underneath the throttle body's for a simple vertical action.

Hi Elie,

Initial plan was a cheap solution like this one but I then decided ti reuse the same linkage I used for several years on my 2.0 L as it was 100% reliable and worked perfectly.
