Throttle cable HELP!!

[79 Camaro]

My Dad and I have a 1979 Capri(same as mustang) and we put a SBC in it with a Holley 750 double pumper. It still has the factory cable and pedal. I want to keep the factory pedal in it but I need a cable set-up that will work for this setup. I have been looking at those LOKAR cables but I cant figure out what I need....

Thanks,
Adam

I'm in the (slow) process of putting a BBC in a Mustang. The Ford throttle is waaaay too long
for what I need; but it looks like it can be shortened using the original throttle petal.
I'm in Wichita. Give me a call sometime, midday, and I will tell you about what I've been thinking about doing.

the lokar cable will work fine and you can use your stock pedal if you need help still either send me a e-mail with your number or ask me for mine and i will get you the part number for the cable and and explain how to set it up for your pedal

I think we were using a gm g-body throttle cable on our mustang with a sbc

Adam on my car I used the outside of the factory cable. Then went to Lowes and got the inside cable and cut it to length.

Adam I think on Aarons car hes using a factory carbed foxbody mustang cable. The cable doesnt know what kind of motor its on. He is using a CSR I think bracket to mount the cable to the carb studs works good for him.

There are different length cables for the different engines...the short one should work fine. The straight 6 & I think, the 4cyl. are pretty long. Really, they are a nice set-up (built-in return spring & the metal mounting tab). Like Tubbed said "It doesn't know...", just get something to hold it in the back & put a ball type stud in your carb, you should be all set. Lorne

Jeg's sells Morse-type cable in different lengths with many available ends for whatever application you're trying to fit. Type "throttle cable" in the search field. Might be a smoother action cable than most others.
