Default Throttle Cable Question

I have a wilson 90 degree elbow and a 105 mm accufab TB. Which cables have you guys been using? The elbow points the TB forward and the rotation of the butterfly moves it forward not back towards the firewall.

Thanks.

The car is a 72 camaro

No pictures as of yet. It is an accufab 90mm mono. With this tb mounted on a wilson elbow bolted to the wilson manifold, the tb faces forward towards the radiator. This puts the linkage on the passenger side of the motor and thus the butterfly has to tilt towards the radiator toopen not towards the firewall as in most applications.

Thanks.

make a bracket and pull from the bottom, from towards the firewall, as opposed to stock LS1's, which pull from the top.
