Ah a bit. Looking at the complexity you had to go to pushed me to really clean the heck out of my garage to find my missing throttle pivot. Using the original two-prong pivot (one for the fuel line, one for the throttle) allows the linkage to line up nicely. I changed my short carb linkage for a longer one from my spares and it all works fine.

Of course I'm now wondering if swapping on the "rebuilt" head and using the painted exhaust manifold was a good idea.

A while back I cleaned and painted the exhaust manifold to prevent further rusting, but it seems that I did not use high-temp paint, so I've been smelling the horrible stench of burning paint for the last couple days. People walking by when I was test driving gave me nasty looks and held their noses...

The intake and my half-washers seems to be working out fine as well.
