33 Coupe Engine Install 18        9/23/03

Here you can see the tap threaded in and up against the throttle bracket. Now I don't need a large dent only a small one is needed here. Let's take a look and see how we did. 
 

 

 

This is more than enough to get me going. All I did now was hit it once with a center punch and we're ready for some drill'n. Notice the faint outline that I scribed around the new bracket. This is just for reference.
 

 

 

After center punching the bracket, I drilled a 3/32" diameter hole first. This will follow the center punch much better than a larger drill will. After drilling the small hole, I then went in with a 1/4" drill. The larger drill again follows the smaller hole so things stay on location.
 

 

 

Here is the new bracket bolted on with some polished stainless steel bolts. The new bracket fits just like I wanted. I'll be installing the TPS linkage next but I'll have to lengthen it first.
