Default Carb Intake/ Elbow throttle cable?

you guys got pics how you are mounting your throttle cable for this style setup? I guess I'm just not that bright, hahaha

Chris

did a search here an external section, and neither had anything for a wilson/precision elbow, just that intakeelbows.com thing...

Let me see if I can explain mine - and an attached picture.

Built a plate for the T/B that puts it in aline with the next plate; built a plate attached to the intake with a tab attached with a notch in it for the throttle cable. Stock throttle cable - but will be changing it out for a LoKar cable. But will be same basic set up. Worked great, but the new cable will be better.

Hope this is what you were looking for.

I'm using copbaits - up to the shop heading for Indy. It's an Accufab T/B.

I drilled two holes on the side of the elbow, tapped the holes then bolted the bracket to the side.

I haven't tried it boosted, but it was fine N/A. thread sealant goes a long way I think

just get creative bolt/weld something on and grind it to fit the cable attachment
