Thanks for the help. So not only can the flapper be put in upside. This was not my case. The valve was actually full open at idle and fully restricted at full throttle. Opposite of what should occur. I'm not sure exactly how I did it wrong put once I took the pivot and the long pin the controls the movement out and put it back together it worked correctly. I think it had something to do with the linkage being rotated past the normal stop point or maybe I tightened the upper linkage arm when it wasn't keyed properly to the stop. For now on I will verify its working properly anytime I disconnect the linkage.

Note: Any time I use the term linkage I'm only referring to the top end linkage as I never took the side cover off to see the lower linkage.
