I have attached the pictures showing throttle at neutral and full throttle. The contact is preventing the throttle from opening 100%. It's very close as it is, but I was wondering if there's an easy solution for this.
Also, I was thinking about running a carb restrictor with this. Do you guys use one with your MT? If anything I'd like to try an 8mm. Just doesn't seem to like WOT from a stop.

Can you rotate the carb any? Should be the 3mm nut and screw holding it on the block. Loosen it, and turn the carb to see if it can open fully.

Is this a Savage?
 
If that doesn't work you could probably also fix that issue buy either putting a Z bend in the linkage or buying one that already has a Z bend in it.

Yeah, They sell Z bend pliers and Dubro sells all sorts of different types of linkage kits
