1963 Dart swap to cable throttle?

Here's an old ad on FABO that shows the front and back side of the V8 pedal. One is missing the nylon rub pad, other has it. For Sale: Early A-Body V8 Gas Pedal Valiant Dart Barracuda

And it looks like Detroit Muscle Technologies offers a new reproduction (without the nylon pad?). Mopar A Body 63-66 Accelerator Gas Pedal (for V8 cars)

To use the V8 pedal, you would also need the 64-66 V8 firewall throttle bracket so you could cut the spoon off it. Or maybe adapt something similar, but I have no idea right off hand what might work.

Thanks so much. I have 2 slant 6 pedals then! I do have the V8 firewall throttle bracket and most of the other parts needed so I might just get the repro from DMT. Thanks for the link. I see you also used the rod style kickdown. I've read (forgot where) that there are firewall clearance issues with the rod linkage in the 63 with an A904, so I was considering a Lokar cable but I do have the rod linkage that came with the super six, so maybe that'll work fine. Guess I'll assess it when the engine and trans is actually in the car! Appreciate the help.
