Hi Pete, thanks. I have this kit, but I thought perhaps I had a different bracket. Did you find the kit well made? I needed to file the half moon shaft hole to fit neatly and the holes on the swivel arms as well. Meccano is better made?

They still make them believe it or not! I think I used the one that was in the kit below and modified it a bit by bending it and adding an extra tapped hole for the cable to bolt to.
I recommend using a nylock on the threaded part of the throttle cable. Anything else winds off.

Their website isn't the greatest but they're very helpful over the phone and will post the bits out.
They're a good source of the ram-flow filters and parts if you're looking for those too.

I don't recall mine being too bad but there's always some fettling with these things.
Use plenty of loctite on all the nuts and bolts!
