updating to throttle cable, how?
Folks,
I put a FiTech throttle body on my stockish rebuilt engine. Could not be happier. I have tried to maintain the stock throttle linkage but drivebility is suffering. I would like to convert to a cable system. Anyone done this? Thoughts? Ed S 1957 Wagon |

I don't know a lot about these. They are designed to work with rods. Do you want a full cable system or just up top on the manifold? I would think you could adapt a second bracket used on the unit for a cable backwards on the rear pivot point. You would still have the rod up the firewall but cable from there. |

There are lots of systems for street rods that work very well or you could use pedal and cable from a late model car/truck. I did that on my 1955 Chieftain to replace the linkage setup.
