If you look in drag racing tech under my 25.5 mustang build there is a pic mid way through. I used a piece of 3/16" aluminum welded onto the elbow.

Did you weld someting on the Ford TB so you could use a LS throttle cable? I know the Ford TB opens the oposit way a LS one does, (tipical Ford) so the cable will have to come from the bottom instead of from the top.

BTW What your intake tube made of? Looks ceramic coated! Looks very nice and matches your hot side.

Thanks - Ron

Edit: DOH! I just noticed that you can move the throttle stop to 4 different positions on the tb itself and thereby move the throttle linkage on the shaft...

I knew there was a reason I sold my accufab for a wilson!

Accufab sells a spacer plate with two ears for bolting a ford style cable bracket. Buy a lokar 1000u36 cable, but use the factory GM cable inside the lokars housing so that the ball doesnt slide through the plastic clip at the pedal.

click on my sig to see how to set it up

How much does the spacer cost? Do you have a part number? If I call them up and tell them I need the spacer plate for bolting a ford style cable bracket are they going to know what I'm talking about?
