Gents, I just installed an Autolite 4100 on the 292 in my '55 Merc. The carb works great up to a point, the point being I lack about 1/2" travel of the linkage from the loud pedal to get to WOT. So my question: has anybody run into a similar situation and if you solved it, how? The carb sits on top of a 1" phenolic spacer and the 4100 manifold vacuum adapter for the PCV which is just a hair over 1" thick. The stock linkage is somewhat adjustable but there's not enough adjustment to pull the throttle lever to WOT and have it rest on the idle adjusting screw with my foot off the gas. I think I could gain a little bit by removing the phenolic spacer but I want to avoid that if possible. TIA for any insights.
