Default throttle cable
Hi,
My 68 firebird has a holly 4160 750cfm carb. When I floor the gas pedal I'm only moving my throttle plate on the carb about 1/4 of the way open. I've always felt the car seemed under powered since I bought it and this is the most likely reason. The cable is old and starting to fray should I buy a replacement throttle cable specific for a 68 firebird, or should I buy a generic type of cable since I have an aftermarket carburator, or does anyone have any other solutions? I want the new cable to open my throttle plate as much as it should if I stomp on it.
Thanks
