Throttle cable and braket options.

[1967formulaS]

Got bored and swapped out the 850 vec sec to this old school dominator I had sitting around.
The fresh motor loves it.
Now just figuring out if I need to:
1. Longer throttle cable and the mancini xtra tall bracket and return springs or
2. One of those universal all in 1 that bolts to the carb studs.
3. Go down the locar route.
I think ideally the throttle cable needs to be 2" longer to take into account the 2" spacer.
It's a 440/4speed, 67 barracuda with a edelbrock Victor manifold and a two inch spacer. If anyone has pics of a similar setup and what does and does not work, that would be appreciated.

in the first pic there seems to be quite some slack on the cable
perhaps a custom bracket would do the trick?

if not, i have this one on my plow truck and like it
(just tossed this one up since it has a good picture)

I went with bouchilon for the cable. Can't remember where the bracket came from.

R. Eherenberg has both for a longer cable and taller bracket on his E-bay site. Also get the Mopar bracket for the carb if it fits the 4500 carb. On my 440 with a TM7 and a 2 inch spacer and Auto trans all that was needed was the Carb bracket. His coil relocation bracket is a nice piece to.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ skip white on ebay !
That's the one I use, w/ a lokar type kickdown and a Chrysler cable the same length as an original 340 a body cable, with a little rigging. My intake isn`t as tall as a victor tho.
