Question on the throttle arm. I have the stock 1961 throttle pedal and arm. The 2 piece throttle arm that attaches to it needs to be flipped so I can use the longer side. Once I remove the bolt, it won't come loose. Do I need to just tap it with a long screwdriver and hammer?

I changed out the rods in the carb to a step down leaner and it seems to run great now. I am just having problems getting the throttle to open up now and I feel its because its no pulling the cable enough.
