I also see your linkage has seen some excessive bind because of the way the bell crank lever is bent/twisted. When adjusted properly, you shold be at WOT at the same time as the gas pedal hits the floor. If the carburetor gets to WOT before the pedal gets to the floor, you will bend linkage.

And here all this time I thought that spring set up was from the factory. Thanks for the lessons learned Craig.
