throttle linkage

OK.....just figured out that I'm not getting wide open throttle when the pedal is fully depressed.

Seems the factory pedal assembly doesn't offer enough movement to open the butterflies completely on a throttle body as opposed to a carb.

I was thinking I could shim out the pedal assembly and maybe bend the pedal linkage to get more movement but I wondered if you guys might know of a better aftermarket solution?

Can't wait to see what kind of power I'm running when I do get this fixed...I thought it was pretty good the way it was ;-)
