Gas pedal roller...

[stroker_valiant]

I was just cruising around the Mancini site and I saw a part that I didn’t know existed. Is this supposed to be a roller that goes on the end of the gas pedal rod that comes from the firewall?
The setup in my car is pictured below, and I don’t have a roller; I never knew anything was supposed to go there. If this is the roller I am thinking of, how does such an item hook up? Is it a press on?

Its a B body part.

So is the A body supposed to be just a stub like the one I posted a pic of? that seems like a crummy setup doesnt it? I allways have to keep grease on the tip to keep it sliding smooth on the actual peadal.

I swapped my 66 Dart gas peddle for a 72 duster gas peddle and throttle cable($10).It works alot better IMO than the 66 peddle.Just sayin..

You are missing a plastic peddle & its suspension that would mount on the lower end of that rod.

The proper termination of accelerator cable is a lead slug which is pressed onto cable, and fits through the large hole, and allows cable to ride in a slot above it. A plastic insert fits into the larger hole to prevent cable from popping free. The solution to securing the cable you have looks like it works just fine.

Below is a 1967 & up cable opperated accelorator.
