Default Picked up a BV24 for my cart and have a question

Picked up a BV24 for my cart and have a question about the throttle. As some of you know I have a 1989 3pg which is a pull throttle with governor and all linkage removed, the BV24 I picked up off a 1988 2pg is a push throttle (spring holds throttle WFO!) with a pressed on linkage. I have not left work yet to mess with it but would like some ideas before I get to work on it. Is it as simple as changing spring position? I will get a better look at it when I get home.

Thanks,
Scott

I ASSume I will just disconnect the shaft spring and rig up a return spring like I have it set up now.

Well the BV24 seems a little fat, I am doing the HEI this week so I will see how it does after that. I picked it up cheap so I figured it was worth a shot.

Like to see some pics of your throttle linkage area.

Fist pics are as I had it with a different Mikuni and straight manifold but I had issues getting enough throttle pull which also created slow speed issues, the last picture is the way it is now (back to stock) with the BV24.

I appreciate the pics. Especially the last one. Forgive my ignorance, but you have the governor screw tightened all the way down and have it directly to the carb? With it being that way I see there is no return spring needed. What kind of motor hazards are present with bypassing the governor.

Is the governor arn hooked up, or loose on the shaft and acting merely as a pivot/ratio-increaser?

Terry, who are you asking? The shaft is flat sided so I is not just a pivot point but it has no effect on the throttle and I assumed because I have the spring cranked all the way down.
