Re: Sniper throttle bracket alignment

I have the FST bracket and am using an LG4 throttle cable with a sniper and it works great. Plenty of adjustment to ensure that it will go wide open at the floor but not before. Correct geometry for 700r4 TV cable too. I do have the extender on the throttle though, had to file the bracket in that area to clear it.
