I'll look and see if I can find my old Pedestal. Could drill a hole in rod and do a cotter pin or safety wire.

If I recall that was a "C" clip wasn't it? If so you can probably find one at the hardware store, our local Ace stores have a whole box of just about every size.

Or, plug the redline and wire-tie the flapper, closed

Bigb56 and timmyboy76, you two are thinking wastegate, he's talking EBPV...it's a stamped metal clip formed to slide on the EBPV rectangular shaft with a 'C' clip stamped into the end of it.

If he/were talking what the wastegate rod connects to, then he can wire tie it closed, thus removing the redline
