throttle linkage hit exhaust bolts

59 chevy 235 stock BC carb. Hooking up my gas pedal and I only have an inch or so of travel Probably stops 6 inches from the floor . It looks like my linkage is hitting my exhaust manifold stud. Its hitting the brass nut. Does it look like anything is wrong in this picture? I know the spring needs to be attached to the pan but this is temporary

Re: throttle linkage hit exhaust bolts

Here's what the assembly manual shows. Looks like your bracket that swivels is going clockwise rather than counterclockwise? Almost looks like your rod to the carb has an extra bend in it too. Hopefully someone who has this set up can chime in.

I think youre right I have it in upside down maybe. I'll try it and see. Been 2 years since I took it all apart. Thanks
