If this is the case then really all I need to do is swap over the red insert and cable quadrant to the 75 throttle and there will be no need to find a rare 190 body with TC because it would be the same thing
Good luck finding a 190 with TC . When I was looking for a ZT with TC all of them were 160's . Never understood why that was though?
