V8 throttle cable routing

[diymirage]

I snapped of the custom (read, countryside engineered) throttle cable of my duster today
I'm looking to order one of the lokar cables, but I'm wondering what the best way is to run it

when I did it last time, I made the cable about a foot long, it came up over the cylinder head and to the carb in a Z shape which I think may have put a little to tight a curve in there which contributed to the cable fraying and breaking

the lokar cable I'm looking at is 24 inches long which allows me to go towards the master cylinder and then to the carb, making for a much more gradual turn

does that seem like a good idea?

any picks on how you guys did it?

(I do have the lokar throttle cable bracket installed already)

or what do you guys think of something like this?

put that right on the fire wall?

I have this -- the Lokar that is - here you can clearly see the throttle cable and where it runs

thanks Mike, that helps
