most people use a manual valve body that does not use a detent cable. just pull the shifter back manually. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

You would need a lever arm added to your TB
that is the proper length to match the WOT
travel in inches that you'd see off an old
carb. However, a 'Vette with its electric
TB might not have the grunt to pull that
cable.

As far as setting the TV cable, I jack the
carb full open, then pull the cable just short
of snug (so it isn't binding at WOT but full
cable is full throttle).
