I have welded up a few of the throttle links. They like to break off at the pivot too. Bring it by and it will take about 10 min.

Well, Kurt came through and the throttle linkage is back on the car. I spent 15 minutes at Kurts. 13 minutes talking about his Koi ponds, and 2 minutes (not kidding) for him to weld this back together.
Here are some promised photos: Putting together the AN fittings and AN-12 tubing: Oops, too tight! AN Tubing being passed into wheel well: AN Tubing in wheel well (needs bracket to hold these in place but they don't move...): Fuel Lines - before: Fuel Lines in place: Fuel Lines and wiring harness in engine compartment: New Suspension Parts (partial): Engine Swap at Jazz Palace (thanks Jazz) (by the way, ran the Targa with Jazz's engine up at the Jeff this weekend and it ran great!): Painting the tow hooks made with (by) Stephen D. - it was windy, but I didn't want to fill the garage with paint fumes. Ran a fan across the opening of the box, and a larger fan blowing out the garage (the box was barely inside the garage but pointing inside) - no fumes!: New small battery in place: Isolation fitting parts: And finally, the throttle linkage Kurt welded up for me:

No upload room for this last photo, of the "isolation fitting" in place.

Nice isolation solution.
Chris is going bald. The ex-Jazzrace motor did seem to do well for you.
