tii throttle linkage question

How many parts does one need to convert a carbed 02 to a tii throttle linkage? (minus anything on the kfisch). Reason I ask..right now with my m20, I have a bracket bolted to the pedal box, and a throttle cable running all the way to the m20 throttle body. The 'feel' of it sucks. The car feels like a hummingbird on uppers. I am thinking about converting it to a 100% rod system (or 'non-cable', whatever), or just have the last little horizontal shot a cable.

Is it just pretty much the bracket on the top of the firewall I would need and the rod from the arm out of the pedal box going up to it?

thx

pivot actuals a 290 mm horizontal rod which terminates at a vertical piece on throttle body. This vertical piece also attaches to kuglefischer and rotates as the throttle position changes, this in turn actuates the third and final rod which changes the enrichment of the pump depending on the throttle position.

I don't have my motor in yet but, I have been playing with a couple linkage/cable options. The one that looks somewhat promising is a setup similar to the what the guys here are selling for the lynx/single dcoe setup. It is basically a cable that attaches to the throttle linkage at the firewall which uses most of an existing carbureted linkage. You replace the upper linkage mount with a bracket and the cable has a fitting that screws onto the end of the linkage and looks like it will work pretty well. Of course these observations are only from my mockups so it might not work but I thought I would throw the idea out anyway... :-)

ie, the amount the cable is pulled relative to the amount the pedal is moved. Notice how this setup is designed to reduce the action on the throttle cable by a fair bit... fine adjustment in pedal action is made by moving the cable or rod pivot points on the pivoting intermediate arm.

So basically, now, if I hit the gas...the action is TOO quick. So I would like to 'slow down' the action ,as opposed to speed up. The system you are describing does the opposite, correct?

either way, looks cool. Thanks for all the posts guys

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
