Check the secondary throttle blade orientation at WOT (if you are running a double-pumper w/manual secondary linkage). You may have corrected the geometry to make the pedal easier to actuate at the expense of not getting a full 90 degree opening on the secondaries. Perform this check with the car off and someone mashing the pedal for you while you peer down the throttle body. If vacuum secondaries, then ignore this post.
