Hello what do you use to fasten the throttle linkage to the block? The original pin is missing? Thanks.

The pivot pin that goes into the block is missing? I’ve never studied, but I assume there’s a threaded hole where it goes?

If, so, I’d think some sort of shoulder bolt would work fine.

Or you could buy the right thing:

Here is what the the original for the 216 chevy looks like.

Post a want ad in the “Truck Parts Wanted” forum, and I’m sure you get a response from a fellow bolter.

Thanks
