I don't know if it's practical to braze or weld the two together (you may not be able to re-ins; /html/tigers/2003-07/msg00278.html (8,568 bytes)

I am going to bet you have a high rise 4 barrel. Someone put it on without modifying the cable linkage properly - like I did! The cable broke, as d; /html/tigers/2003-07/msg00280.html (9,464 bytes)

I can pull the lever under the dash that attaches directly to the throttle cable with my hand and rev the engine all I want.
