stock throttle linkage vs cable

I think one of my big problems is the excessive lag between the pedal and the throttle body. I've tried to adjust the linkage but it always seems to drag or is just really clumsy. Has anyone experienced this?

I just changed out from the stock bell crank to cable but didnt really have any issues with the bell crank set-up. No slop in it, I just didnt like it since it was cut and modified to fit the 351 it screwed up the "ratio".
