Default 68 camaro throttle cable (carb)

What did you guys use for the conversion of the accelerator rod to the cable type? Pedal, and cable? Ive read everything from a 1st gen 6 cyl pedal to a 70 and up nova v-8, to fabbing up stuff w a lokar cable. Im looking for a good factory type and easy fit. Pics would be awesome as well. Thanks in advance. Oh yeah, its an lq4 carb'd.

I used a lokar pedal and cable assembly with the LS style end, worked out perfectly. Lokar makes some good stuff! I'll shoot some pictures tomorrow for you!

i used the stock pedal from my 67 camaro and welded it to the pedal from a 4th gen its kinda mix of both but looks stock, IMO the best way to go. dont get me wrong but ive seen many lokar applications that i didnt think looked right for the car

6 cylinder pedal setup. I was able to use a LS throttle cable with it. No Lokar had their TV on my old 200-4r. I think the stock stuff is better. I was able to cut the end off a stock cable and tie it into the pedal. Cost $0 since I had the cable.
