Carb and throttle cable help

Just curious what the cable is suppose to fit ? You can modify what you have , I believe all you would is an adjustable fitting at the carburetor end or just buy a Lokar style throttle cable .

I am pretty sure it's the stock cable. It was hooked up to my old carb, but they had the excess cable by the firewall. When I try to do what was done before it keeps bending the cable.

I have a connection to run the cable through if I cut it, but just not sure I want to do that.
